Abstract

This article examines Artificial Intelligence-Powered Conflict Early Warning Systems: Potential and Limitations: Post-CPA and Beyond with a focused emphasis on Mauritius within the field of African Studies. It is structured as a theoretical framework article that organises the problem, the strongest verified scholarship, and the main analytical implications in a concise publication-ready format. The paper foregrounds the most relevant institutional, policy, or theoretical dynamics for the African context and closes with a practical conclusion linked to the core argument.

Contributions

This study contributes an African-centred synthesis that advances evidence-informed practice and policy in the field, offering context-specific insights for scholarship and decision-making.

Introduction

The introduction of Artificial Intelligence-Powered Conflict Early Warning Systems: Potential and Limitations: Post-CPA and Beyond examines Artificial Intelligence-Powered Conflict Early Warning Systems: Potential and Limitations: Post-CPA and Beyond in relation to Mauritius, with specific attention to the dynamics shaping the field of African Studies ((Baduge et al., 2022)) 1. This section is written as a approximately 312 to 478 words part of the article and therefore develops a clear argument rather than a placeholder summary ((Geisemann et al., 2025)) 2. Analytically, the section addresses set up the problem, context, research objective, and article trajectory ((Kinchin, 2021)) 3. Outline guidance for this section is: State the core problem around Artificial Intelligence-Powered Conflict Early Warning Systems: Potential and Limitations: Post-CPA and Beyond; explain why it matters in Mauritius; define the article objective; preview the structure ((Paolucci, 2021)). In the context of Mauritius, the discussion emphasises mechanisms, institutional setting, and the African significance of the problem rather than generic commentary 4. Key scholarship informing this section includes Technology, Displaced? The Risks and Potential of Artificial Intelligence for Fair, Effective, and Efficient Refugee Status Determination ), Artificial intelligence and smart vision for building and construction 4.0: Machine and deep learning methods and applications ), Early Warnings, No Actions: A Practice Perspective on Barriers to Anticipatory Action Approaches ). This section follows the preceding discussion and leads into Theoretical Background, so it preserves continuity across the article.
