Background |
|
The Security Council resolution 2495 (2019) decided that UNAMID should continue to implement its mandate as set out in the resolution 2495 (2019) which contains a transition concept for North, South, West and East Darfur where the Mission should engage in joint implementation with the UNCT through the State Liaison Functions (SLFs). From 1 January 2019 onwards, the mandate and corresponding Mission Concept tasks UNAMID to co-locate with several UNCT partners and jointly implement the mandate to enable a full transition of tasks by the extended end date of the Mission on 31 October 2020. Under the revised structure, UNAMID and the UNCT will optimize efforts on protective measures leading to increased stabilization throughout Darfur and to promote a shift from the humanitarian angle of protection of civilians to support to the Government of the Sudan for the establishment of a long-term protective environment, in line with international humanitarian laws and human rights standards. Joint efforts will focus on sustainable solutions to the critical drivers of conflict in order to prevent a relapse and enable the Government of the Sudan, the United Nations agencies, funds and programmes (AFPs), civil society partners, as well as international actors to prepare for UNAMID’s eventual exit. Stabilization constitutes a critical component of the peace process and is considered an urgent priority for progress on the security and stability in Darfur. Additionally, Darfur is among the most heavily impacted regions by the high influx of South Sudanese refugees fleeing from South Sudan due to conflict and instability. The region currently hosts a cumulative number of 157,041 South Sudanese refugees since the start of the influx of refugees in Sudan following outbreak of conflict in its neighboring South Sudan as reported in the UNHCR Sudan Population Dashboard, 30 Sep 2019 edition. Darfur still has 1.8 million IDPs and their return may pose a huge challenge to resettlement including land, basic service, food and non-food items, etc.
UNDP Sudan is currently implementing Community-Based Development Solutions for Migrants and Host Communities Programme. In order to address the structural challenges migrants face, a thorough analysis on their vulnerabilities and a needs assessment were conducted considering development interventions under the Humanitarian Development Peace Nexus. This requires smooth coordination with other agencies and incorporates processes allowing to coordinate and complement efforts put in place by several agencies.
