Description

The Security Council today extended the mandate of the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH) for one year to 31 January 2027.

The Caribbean country faces a complex set of challenges, including gang violence, political instability and a humanitarian crisis. The UN’s operational involvement in Haiti dates to the departure of then-President Jean-Claude Duvalier in 1986, which was followed by the holding of a democratic election in 1990 and then a military coup in 1991. The UN has since remained deeply engaged in Haiti through successive peacekeeping and political missions.

Established in 2019, BINUH supports the Haitian authorities in strengthening political stability, good governance and the rule of law, while promoting human rights and coordinating international assistance.
