AFRICAN UNION. Since 2009, the African Union has prioritised the development of a protection of civilians approach for AU-mandate peacekeeping operations275 leading in 2010 to the adoption of the Draft Guidelines for the Protection of Civilians in African Union Peace Support Operations. According to the guidelines, the protection of civilians includes “to ensure the full respect for the rights of (…) the individual recognised under regional instruments including the African Charter of Human and Peoples’ Rights (…), international law, including humanitarian, human rights and refugee law.276 In the same year, the Commission decided to mainstream the draft Guidelines for the Protection of Civilians in Peace Support Missions.277 For the further elaboration of the Guidelines, the AU has consulted on a regular basis with the UN “to ensure that the development of the Guidelines (…) is aligned to the UN approach as closely as possible.”278 Regarding the specific case of detentions in peacekeeping operations, one official document suggests that the ASF policy documents do not contain any official AU detention policy.279 Regarding specifically the application of IHL, the status of mission agreement of the African Union for the Ceasefire Commission in the Darfur region states that the African Union shall ensure that the operation is conducted with full respect of the principles and rules of the Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocols.280 The same disposition is inserted in the SOMA for AMISOM281 so that one can probably conclude that it is the current practice of the AU now to demand respect for the principles and rules of the Geneva Conventions. In short, the internal documents of the AU confirm the application of human rights law and international humanitarian law without containing further specific rules regarding the application of these two areas of international law. 275 Progress Report of the Chairperson of the commission on the Development of Guidelines for the Protection of Civilians in African Union Peace Support Operations, PSC/PR/2(CCLXXIX) (2011), 1, para.5. 276 Proposed Guidelines for the Protection of Civilians in African Union Peace Support Operations For Considerations By African Union (2010), 2, para.1. 277 Report of the Chairperson of the Commission on the Situation in Somalia, PSC/MIN/1(CCLXLV) (2010), 8, para. 33; Report of the Chairperson of the Commission on the Situation in Somalia, PSC/MIN/1(CCLXV) (2010), 9, para. 33; 22, para.83 (iii). 278 Progress Re...
