Abstract

AMISOM has continued to perform its essential role of providing security and enabling political and state building processes in Somalia since its deployment in 2007. Since 2017, Somalia and the international community’s consensus has been for a transition of security responsibility from AMISOM to Somali Security Forces (SSF) and institutions, with the aim of Somalis taking the lead in security by December 2021. Against this backdrop, the Commission presents the Chairperson’s Report on the outcomes of the 5th AU-UN Joint Review of AMISOM, bearing also in mind that the current mandate of AMISOM will come to an end on 27 May 2019.
