United Nations Assistance Mission In Somalia Unsom
The United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM) was established on 3 June 2013 by UN Security Council Resolution 2102, following a comprehensive assessment of the United Nations in support of the establishment of the Federal Government of Somalia. The mandate of UNSOM would include the provision of policy advice to the Federal Government and the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) on peacebuilding and state-building in the areas of: governance, security sector reform and rule of law (including the disengagement of combatants), development of a federal system (including state formation), constitutional review, democratisation (including preparations for the 2016 political transition) and coordination of international donor support. Among its other mandated functions, UNSOM is helping build the Federal Government’s capacity to promote respect for human rights and women’s empowerment, promote child protection, prevent conflict-related sexual and gender-based violence, and strengthen justice institutions. Further, it is monitoring, helping investigate and reporting to the Council on any abuses or violations of human rights or of international humanitarian law committed in Somalia, or any abuses committed against children or women. The Mission is also supporting the implementation of the National Security Architecture that was endorsed by the Federal Government and Federal Member States in April 2017 and the Comprehensive Approach to Security framework.

United Nations Support Office In Somalia Unsos
The United Nations Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS), formerly known as the United Nations Support Office for AMISOM (UNSOA), was established pursuant to Security Council resolution 1863 (2009) to provide logistics support to the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM), which was reconfigured to the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) following the adoption of resolution 2628 (2022) on 31 March 2022. The current mandate of UNSOS is elaborated on in Security Council resolution 2748 (2024). While the role and mandate of UNSOS remain unchanged by the resolution, logistics support to ATMIS and the Somali Security Forces (SSF) is expected to evolve when ATMIS is replaced by the successor mission, the African Union Support and Stabilisation Mission in Somalia (AUSSOM). The mandate also authorises UNSOS to support the Somali army and police on joint or coordinated operations with ATMIS.
