The United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO), will be marking 23 years in its peacekeeping mission since it took over from the United Nations Mission for Congo (MONUC).
Monusco has been in the DRC since 2010, with a mandate to protect civilians, humanitarian personnel, and human rights defenders under imminent threat of physical violence and to support the Government of the DRC in its stabilization and peace consolidation efforts.
