Neste estudo procurou-se analisar a participação das Forças Armadas Portuguesas na Missão de Treino da União Europeia no Mali, tendo em vista identificar possíveis contributos para desenhar uma estratégia nacional para o Sahel.
A investigação seguiu um método de raciocínio dedutivo, consubstanciado numa estratégia qualitativa e utilizou-se o estudo de caso como desenho de pesquisa, sustentado na pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, bem como em entrevistas semiestruturadas.
Desta investigação resultou que, a União Europeia está interessada em garantir a segurança na região do Sahel porque algumas das ameaças originárias desta região podem potencialmente colocar em perigo os seus Estados-membros. Com a deterioração da situação no norte do Mali, a Europa decidiu tornar-se mais ativa neste país através de missões no quadro da Política Comum de Segurança e Defesa.
Concluiu-se que a participação militar nacional na Missão de Treino da União Europeia no Mali, tem procurado contribuir para a satisfação dos compromissos internacionais assumidos pela União Europeia, mostrando que Portugal se empenha multilateralmente, onde à sua dimensão, demonstra ser um parceiro produtor de segurança regional e internacional, possuindo a credibilidade necessária para influenciar decisões relativamente a África, dentro das organizações a que pertence.
