Mission and objectives

UNAMA was established in 2002 as a Political/ Peacebuilding Mission, exceptionally) directed and supported by the UN Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO).

Context

According to UN policy directives to achieve gender equity, and the UN system-wide goal established in 1994 to reach 50/50 parity at all levels and in all entities, the gender imbalance at UNAMA is staggering. During the past 10 years, there has been ongoing concern about the gender imbalance at UNAMA. This was most recently expressed during the Senior Gender Dialogue meetings by the current SRSG. It was noted that additional measures are now required if the status quo is to change. Consequently, the SRSG asked the O/CMS (Office of the Chief of Mission Support) to review the situation and identify creative ways to attract and retain qualified female national and international staff. The UNAMA Field Technology Service — Information Management Unit (FTS-IMU) Records Management Team is responsible for implementation of United Nations Records Management (RM) policies, procedures and tools, including application of the UN Peacekeeping File Classification Scheme and Retention Schedule to all records, regardless of their form or medium. It will provide comprehensive records management support to UNAMA staff members, including training and technical assistance as well as identification of vital records and development of a plan aimed at their protection.
