EXPERIENCE OF INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND PEACEBUILDING IN THE WESTERN BALKANS

Summary/Abstract: The Western Balkans region, which includes countries such as Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia, has long been considered one of the most unstable areas in Europe. The region has been the scene of numerous conflicts, especially after the collapse of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s. International organizations such as the United Nations, the European Union, NATO and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe have played key roles in attempts to resolve conflicts and build peace. This paper analyses their role, the challenges they have faced and the effectiveness of their interventions in the region.
