Abstract

This monograph explores Bangladesh’s participation in United Nations peacekeeping operations. It traces the evolution of Bangladesh’s role, from early contributions to becoming one of the largest troop-contributing countries. The study highlights the motivations—ranging from global responsibility to strategic diplomacy and economic benefits. It evaluates challenges faced by peacekeepers, including security risks, operational constraints, and allegations of misconduct. The monograph concludes that peacekeeping has enhanced Bangladesh’s international image but requires constant commitment to professionalism and accountability.
