The prospects of a third world war, the potential use of nuclear weapons, the humanitarian crisis, and the unprecedented sanctions introduced by different governments raise significant challenges and opportunities to transform global governance and financial systems.

Serious questions have been raised about the efficiency of the UN system in maintaining peace and about new ways to counterbalance the global powers. In the past, African countries have called for reform of the UN system and the need to decolonise it. However, currently, there seem to be no strong voices arguing for the decolonisation of the UN system.
