Although it is the world’s youngest country, South Sudan has been plagued by ongoing violence from the start. In July 2011, the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) was established to support the new government, protect civilians, monitor and investigate human rights violations, support humanitarian assistance, and promote the implementation of the peace agreement.

How UNMISS Supports U.S. Interests
UNMISS works to provide stability to ensure the peace process can move forward. This is critical to address the needs of the humanitarian crises due to flooding, food crises and insecurity. Due to bipartisan support for South Sudan, the U.S. has invested billions in the country and supports the lifesaving work of the mission to support the people of South Sudan.
