A Model of UN Peacekeeping: Timor-Leste | United Nations

Описание: Human Stories of an UN Peacekeeper: Timor-Leste

---------------------------------

Since 2012, Timor-Leste has demonstrated to the world that a path to peace is possible. In the years prior, the Pacific Island nation hosted six UN missions amid prolonged instability and conflict.

The legacy of peacekeeping remains strong in Timor-Leste, as the Timorese people are now sharing their peacebuilding experience with other conflict-affected regions.

---------------------------------

Summary
During the turbulent early years of Timor-Leste’s independence, the UN was a constant presence, helping to maintain peace and stability. Twenty-four years on, the country has made the successful transition from a host nation for UN peacekeeping operations, to one that contributes to supporting missions elsewhere.
