Abstract:
This case study aims to explain the challenges related to Ebola and COVID-19 faced by MONUSCO in the DRC, examining the domains of 'human security' and 'logistics', to present the responses implemented by the mission and discuss the modelling of efforts established to face the crisis. The research applied a triangulation of data technique; collection of data included interviews, questionnaires, and participant observation. The study found that MONUSCO was able to sustain the logistical support of its human and material resources to ensure the conditions to carry out the mandate and preserve human security. In addition, the study indicated that the modelling of efforts established by MONUSCO provided the necessary framework to sustain the inter-agency effort in the DRC, combining military and civilian efforts.
