Definition
- Peacekeeping forces are neutral, lightly armed military forces deployed by intergovernmental organizations to carry out peace-support functions in countries emerging from conflict. Most closely associated with the United Nations (UN), peacekeeping forces are designed to create a space for the political settlement of disputes, and, once attained, to solidify the peace through their presence.
