The natural resources and other riches are cause of increased attention from the foreign policy establishment of the entire world to Africa and most notably the Sub-Saharan region. Yet, the continent is not forgotten in terms of the recent war against terrorism. Despite the fact that religious extremism has also used African soil, ultimately, Africa’s regional security has an internal, or domestic basis. Dire poverty, rampant corruption and economic problems in weak or failing states, environmental and healthcare challenges are the underlying causes of insecurity, creating a breeding ground for terrorism. This paper argues that a secure and stable environment in Africa is essential for the further integration and development of the continent. As a consequence, it would mean a minimised possibility of any internal/external terrorist activity in the future. The international contribution to tackling the problems of Africa is examined; and different programmes and approaches of various actors on the international scene are evaluated in this paper.
