The United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH) was established by the Security Council in its resolution 2476 of 25 June 2019 and deployed under chapter VI of the United Nations Charter.

The Mission’s efforts are in support of the Haitian long term development objectives, and are to be integrated with those of the 19 agencies, funds and programmes of the United Nations Country Team, which deliver humanitarian assistance and implement development programmes under the leadership of national authorities.

As a whole, the UN system in Haiti works in support of national institutions to improve the lives of the Haitian people, in line with national priorities and the Agenda 2030 on Sustainable Development. This approach reflects the mutually supportive relationship between peace, security and sustainable development, and is premised on full ownership and accountability of Haiti’s state institutions.
