China’s Engagement with Peace and Security in Africa

China's engagement with matters of peace and security in Africa has recently become more prominent. This can be seen in peacekeeping, peacebuilding, conflict mediation, or the measures adopted at the 6th Forum for China-Africa Cooperation summit in December 2015 to strengthen cooperation on peace and security. These underlined how important these are to China's evolving policy engagement with the African continent, including how security relates to development. These panels will bring together leading academic and policy experts from China and Europe to discuss key themes and issues about China's engagement with peace and security in Africa.
