Peacekeeping Operations in Africa September 23, 2019 Many Members of Congress have demonstrated an interest in the mandates, effectiveness, and funding status of United Nations (U.N.) peacekeeping operations in Africa as an integral Luisa Blanchfield component of U.S. policy toward Africa and a key tool for fostering greater stability and security Specialist in International on the continent. As of September 2019, there are seven U.N. peacekeeping operations in Africa: Relations the U.N.

Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA), the U.N. Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA), Lauren Ploch Blanchard Specialist in African Affairs the U.N.

Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO), the African Union-United Nations Mission in Darfur (UNAMID), and the U.N. Mission for the Organization of a Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO). The United States, as a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council, plays a key role in establishing, renewing, and funding U.N. peacekeeping operations, including those in Africa. For 2019, the U.N. General Assembly assessed the U.S. share of U.N. peacekeeping operation budgets at 27.89%; since the mid-1990s Congress has capped the U.S. payment at 25% due to concerns that the current assessment is too high. During the Trump Administration, the United States generally has voted in the Security Council for the renewal and funding of existing U.N.

  • The Protection of Children in Peacemaking and Peacekeeping Processes
    The Protection of Children in Peacemaking and Peacekeeping Processes Ilene Cohn* I. BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION Despite increased international attention to and awareness of children's rights, children are largely overlooked in the peacemaking and peacekeeping process. Rules of engagement for peacekeepers disregard children, and re- construction and reconciliation programs that emerge from negotiations ignore the differential impact on and particular needs of children. The effect is to marginalize persistent problems like the rehabilitation and reintegra- tion of child soldiers and, more broadly, to miss the opportunity to address widespread systemic problems common to war-torn societies. Children suffer disproportionately in war, and they benefit disproportion- ately less in peace. The international community has recognized the deficiency of the international bill of rights in addressing specific classes of injustice or the status of entire groups of persons, and it has acknowledged the need for programmatic tools to address the special needs of vulnerable communities. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), to which I refer throughout as a guidepost for children-oriented initiatives, is the most widely ratified human rights treaty and obliges States to take positive measures to ensure the protection of children's rights both in peace and in war.1 A similar approach is both warranted and reasonable in peace proc- * Program Officer, Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict, United Nations. Visiting Fellow, Harvard Law School Human Rights Program (1997- 1999). I would like to express special thanks to Peter Rosenblum for his encouragement, advice and edito- rial wisdom, and to the Harvard Human Rights Program for offering me an environment so conducive to research and writing.

    May 30, 2014 The Honorable John F. Kerry Mr. Brian C. Deese Office of the Secretary of State Office of the Director United States Department of State Office of Management and Budget 2201 C Street, NW, Room 7226 1650 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Room 252 Washington, DC 20520 Washington, DC 20503 Dear Secretary Kerry & Deputy Director Deese: We write today as organizations greatly concerned about the crisis in the Central African Republic (CAR) and strongly supportive of international efforts to restore order and ameliorate the severe human suffering. In light of the decision by the Security Council to authorize a UN peacekeeping mission in CAR and vote of support from the U.S. Mission to the UN, we urge the Administration to take all necessary steps to ensure that the peacekeeping operation is fully funded in FY2015. Specifically, we urge the Administration to immediately issue a formal request to Congress requesting funding for the UN Peacekeeping mission in CAR, MINUSCA. We are concerned that, absent a formal budget request, Congress will not provide sufficient FY2015 funding for MINUSCA. As the absence of funding for the UN Mali peacekeeping mission in the FY2014 Omnibus Appropriations bill clearly demonstrated, Congress has been hesitant to appropriate money for UN missions that are not formally requested in the President’s budget. An explicit FY2015 budget request for MINUSCA – either under Contributions for International Peacekeeping Activities (CIPA) account or the Peacekeeping Operations (PKO) account with language calling for assessed expenses of MINUSCA to be paid out of PKO – is thus vital to ensuring that a mission in CAR be funded.
