Evaluation of the contribution of strategic communications to fostering public trust in peacekeeping operations_IED-24-011
Overview
OIOS-IED conducted a thematic evaluation of the outcomes achieved through the contribution of strategic communications in peacekeeping operations to fostering public trust between 2017 and 2023.
Overall, peacekeeping strategic communications provided relevant support to mission objectives, but further opportunities remained to fully adapt to the United Nations strategic communications policy and incorporate the needs and priorities of the host population. Mission strategic communications were largely coherent and sometimes slow and inwardly focused, demonstrating an insular approach that limited engagement with partners. Further structured and whole-of-mission support is needed to stem the tide of mis- and disinformation and hate speech in peacekeeping contexts.
