Resumo: | The current wide-ranging and complex relations in the international environment demand a comprehensive approach to challenges in world security. Regional organizations play a decisive role in the peaceful settlement of disputes and conflict prevention. This is especially important in Africa given the many enduring problems that affect this continent. Considering that security is a basic condition for development and prosperity, this study aims to assess the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP) organization’s ability to promote stability in its African member states and the CPLP’s aptitude to help resolve a crisis situation and return to stability. The research concluded that the CPLP is an intergovernmental organization capable of enhancing the security of its African country members. Even without an organizational defined policy towards defense and security, CPLP developed a Defense Cooperation Protocol that defined the overarching goals to promote defense cooperation among the CPLP members and defined a defense structure for the organization. The Community also demonstrated its capabilities through the political and diplomatic dialogue concerning the stability in its African country members. This commitment allowed the Community to play an important role in addressing crisis situations within its members and led to the international community recognizing these actions. |
