United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS)

The United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) is a peacekeeping operation established in 2011 to support stability, peace, and development in South Sudan. It provides protection for civilians, especially those affected by conflict, and assists in implementing peace agreements. UNMISS also helps build government capacity, promote human rights, and supports humanitarian efforts. The mission works closely with South Sudanese authorities and international partners to foster long-term peace and stability in the young nation emerging from years of internal conflict.
