Abstract

Conflict resolution, over the last four decades, has emerged as an important field of study impacting global, regional, national and local unresolved issues of contentious nature. At the end of the Cold War, transformation of conflict took place from inter to intra-state which augmented greater challenges for regional organisations. Yet, inter-state conflicts continue to pose a major threat to global peace and security. The United Nations (UN) and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), therefore, have enormous significance because of the daunting task of resolving conflicts in different parts of the world.
