Abstract:This article focuses on the establishment of the Panel of the Wise in the African Union (AU) peace and security architecture. It examines the basis, design and role of the Panel, and explores the possibilities that can be employed by the Panel in promoting the internalization of peace and security in Africa. The author makes recommendations in respect of the membership, norms and mandate of the Panel, and expresses confidence that, if properly designed and operationalized, the Panel will make a difference in the peace and security architecture of the AU.
