| Abstract | Addis Ababa, Ethiopia The Responsibility to Protect (R2P) has achieved important progress since it gained a rare political consensus at the World Summit in 2005, gradually assuming a normative significance in policy and academic circles. In the final paragraph of his 2014 Report on the Responsibility to Protect, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon declared that 2015, which marks the tenth anniversary of the World Summit, “is an opportune moment” for the General Assembly to build on the consensus reached to date on R2P and to “take stock of efforts to implement” the principle. The UN Office on Genocide Prevention and the Responsibility to Protect, in collaboration with the Stanley Foundation, organized a regional consultation meeting on the evaluation of R2P in Africa. The meeting, “Taking Stock of Efforts to Implement the Responsibility to Protect,” took place March 6, 2015, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. |
