Description:
The UN Trust fund for Haiti has been established to operationalize the Multinational security support (MSS) mission’s mandate for Haiti, per United Nations security council resolution (UNSCR) 2699, adopted in October 2023. Administered by the UN Department of operational support (DOS), the MSS Trust fund finances activities in support of MSS operations include : (1) reimbursing the costs of contingent and related personnel and associated self-sustainment costs, for personnel contributing countries to the MSS; (2) delivering MSS related training; (3) acquiring equipment for police contingents deployed to the MSS to operate in accordance with the mission’s mandate; (4) providing logistical support to the MSS including, but not limited to the provision of food and water, fuel, transport, tents, defence stores and appropriate very high frequency (VHF) and ultra high frequency (UHF) communication equipment. This includes High frequency (HF) communication equipment to enable interoperability with the MSS and in-theatre medical evacuation; and, hiring of personnel, consultants, experts and support staff; and (5) providing technical assistance to support the establishment by the MSS of its compliance mechanism for it to meet requirements under the Human Rights Due Diligence Policy.
Canada's initial contribution enables DOS to defray its initial costs. DOS would first need to work with donors and personnel contributors to establish a governance structure to define and prioritize the mission's needs and develop a reimbursement framework for troop and police contributing countries. It would also need to create a model and sequencing chart to ensure the disbursement of funds is based on needs.
