OROLSI: Reforming Peacekeepers

The Office of Rule of Law and Security Institutions (OROLSI) is an institution of over 15,000 rule of law and security professionals that assist with ensuring the rule of law and security institutions are maintained, especially in conflict-affected countries. Through the use of police peacekeepers, who are civilian, military, and police personnel from a range of member states with distinct experiences and cultures, OROLSI aims to prevent conflict and work towards  global peace. Though organized with these intentions in 2007, peacekeeping operations under the OROLSI face many challenges. The changing nature of conflict, the new focus of peacekeepers to protect civilians (increasing demand for peacekeepers), the increasing number of countries withdrawing consent for peacekeeping operations, and limited resources represent some of the problems OROLSI is currently faced with. 

 

Delegates in this committee will have to address complex issues surrounding national sovereignty and navigate the nuances of foreign influence, working to ensure global peace for all. The challenges that the OROLSI currently faces will push delegates to collaborate with each other and marry their countries policies with the terms necessary to reform peacekeeping, or even remove it entirely. Through riveting debate and creative problem solving, delegates will be tasked to persevere with each other's countries to prevent disputes and sustain international tranquility.
