MONUSCO current mandate is found in the resolution 2502 adopted by the Security Council on 19 December 2019, by which the Security council decides to extend until 20 December 2020 the mandate of MONUSCO in the DRC, including its Intervention Brigade. MONUSCO took over from an earlier UN peacekeeping operation – the United Nations Organization Mission in Democratic Republic of the Congo – on 1 July 2010. Near the end of the draft resolution there is a new paragraph explicitly encouraging the DRC government to undertake tasks, such as appointing a senior coordinator to lead the DRC’s disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration programs and initiating disciplinary and judicial procedures against DRC officials engaged in corruption, in accordance with the country’s legislation. Future reconfigurations of MONUSCO would be determined as the situation evolved on the ground, including:  the completion of ongoing military operations in North and South Kivu as well as Orientale provinces; improved Government capacity to protect the population effectively; and the consolidation of State authority throughout the territory. His report is reportedly due in February or March. Photo MONUSCO/Marylène Seguy. The origins of the conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (known as Zaire until 1997) can be traced to the 1994 Rwandan genocide, during which millions of both Tutsi and Hutu Rwandans fled to the eastern Congo as refugees. In addition, there have been four attacks on Ebola facilities in March, illustrating the tensions between communities affected by Ebola and those trying to assist in the response. When the Security Council approaches the final stage of negotiation of a draft resolution the text is printed in blue. The UN Security Council extends the mandate of MONUSCO until 20 December 2019 Jean-Tobie Okala & Radio Okapi The UN Security Council decided unanimously on Friday, March 29, to renew the mandate of the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo MONUSCO, until as of December 20, 2019. Some members, mainly the US, wanted significant changes to the MONUSCO mandate in this resolution—including with regard to the duration of the mission’s drawdown and the Force Intervention Brigade (FIB)—arguing that after the nine-month technical rollover in March the moment for transformation was now. responsible and sustainable withdrawal ". Two priorities have been identified for the mandate: the protection of those under greatest threat and support for the stabilization and strengthening of institutions. After the closure of the Mission’s cycle, Gender Markers are assigned to each office according to how successful they were in integrating gender in their work. It was accepted with some modifications, after it faced resistance on the grounds that this is not a topic for the Security Council and that there is little proof that these are among the DRC’s main challenges. New language was added to the operative part of the resolution about mission effectiveness, similar to language recently incorporated in the mandate of the UN Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA). Some members wanted to make his involvement and duties more explicit, emphasising his role in the DRC. These are the two strategic priorities of MONUSCO for the next nine months: to contribute to the protection of civilians and the stabilization and strengthening of State institutions. It seems the US wanted the language to reflect that the DRC as a state party to the Rome Statute had consented to ICC jurisdiction. Compared to nine operative paragraphs on this topic in resolution 2409, this year’s draft resolution only has three such paragraphs. Gender affairs has also as priority to strengthen capacities for a gender responsiveness peacekeeping through integrating gender perspective in the protection of civilian and stabilization with initiatives such as: The goal of gender parity at all levels in the UN is a commitment that is now two decades old and is reflective of core values that are as old as the Organization itself.
