Abstract

Intelligence agencies have become indispensable institutions for promoting peace, security, and democratic governance in African states. The evolving security landscape characterised by terrorism, violent extremism, transnational organised crime, cyber threats, constitutional instability, climate-related insecurity, and other hybrid threats has expanded the responsibilities of intelligence agencies beyond traditional information collection. This paper examines the role of state intelligence agencies in strengthening peace and security across Africa through intelligence-led decision-making, early warning, conflict prevention, counterterrorism, border security, cybersecurity, protection of constitutional order, and support to peace operations and diplomacy.
