Closure of UNSOA

The United Nations Support Office for the African Union Mission in Somalia mandate concluded on 09 November 2015, following UN Security Council Resolution 2245, transitioning its responsibilities to United Nations Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS).

Facilities and Engineering

UNSOA contractors have constructed offices and living accommodation in Mogadishu for approximately 6,800 personnel, together with associated sanitation, kitchen and dining facilities.

The construction of the AMISOM headquarters in Mogadishu was completed in 2012.

UNSOA has also provided significant quantities of security barriers for camp perimeters and facilities protection in Mogadishu and the sectors of South Central Somalia, together with a significant supply of defense stores, including sandbags and razor wire to help AMISOM improve its protection measures.

Civilian accommodation and offices built by UNSOA are available to support AMISOM civilian staff in Mogadishu and Sector locations.

AMISOM civilian co-location in Mogadishu allows for increased support to AMISOM troops.
