The UK Government supports the mandate of the UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), which helps protect civilians and supports the transitional government of South Sudan to implement their peace process. In the 2024/25 financial year, the UK provided nearly £52 million to support the UNMISS mandate to aid preparations for elections, including through support and technical assistance to electoral institutions.
Negotiations are underway on the renewal of this mandate. The UK Government is committed to working with its partners to secure its renewal.
