Peace and Security Pillar: Uniformed Personnel Fatality Rate in Active Peacekeeping Missions

The Casualty Rate represents the proportion of fatalities among personnel in currently active United Nations peacekeeping operations (PKOs) from 2010 to present, calculated on a semi-annual basis (i.e., by half years).  
  
It is calculated by comparing officially reported fatalities, received through the UN’s Notification of Peacekeeper Casualties (NOTICAS) system, to the total number of uniformed personnel contributed by Member States. Rates are expressed per 1,000 personnel and computed only for PKOs that are currently active. The number of active PKOs is dynamically derived from the mission status (currently 11 active PKOs as of 1 December 2025, but this will automatically recalculate if the active missions change).  
  
The dataset integrates two official UN sources:  
  
Mission Fatalities – Fatalities in PKOs and SPMs since 1948.  
  
Historical Uniformed Personnel Contribution

Peace and Security Pillar: Estimated Extrabudgetary Resources for Special Political Missions

The dataset contains the estimated extrabudgetary resources for special political missions. Extrabudgetary resources are regularly used for backstopping, surge requirements for good offices, crisis situations and other activities related to the mandates of Special Political Missions. The resources are critical for inter-mission activities and backstopping capacity at Headquarters, thereby enabling closer collaboration. Extrabudgetary resources are also used for targeted projects in different regions, such as on water management in Central Asia, in the Cameroon-Nigeria land boundary region, and various projects in the Great Lakes region.

Peace and Security Pillar: Proposed Allocation of Vehicles for Special Political Missions

Efficient vehicle fleet management is critical for the operational success of Special Political Missions (SPMs) undertaken by the United Nations. Headquarters provides guidance to field missions, emphasizing a direct correlation between vehicle holdings and the number of staff. Operational priorities are determined based on supporting mileages, frequency of use, and usage patterns. The Secretariat, in its ongoing efforts to enhance vehicle fleet management, has established a standard ratio for light passenger vehicles. This ratio serves as a benchmark for assessing ground transportation needs. Furthermore, the Secretariat monitors vehicle acquisition to ensure missions utilize cost-efficient vehicles from established systems contracts, contributing to efficiency gains without compromising operational needs.  
  
The dataset will be regularly updated to reflect changes in personnel levels, vehicle holdings, and any adjustments to standard ratios as communicated by the Secretariat.

Peace and Security Pillar: DPPA Multi-Year Appeal (MYA): Donor Contributions

The Multi-Year Appeal (MYA) is the primary extra-budgetary instrument of the Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs (DPPA). Voluntary funding through the MYA helps DPPA to lead the Secretary-General’s good offices and mediation efforts, provide political analysis, electoral assistance, and supports Special Envoys and Special Representatives of the Secretary-General in their efforts to foster inclusive dialogues and resolve conflicts. Two-thirds of MYA funding is unearmarked, which critically grants DPPA the flexibility to respond to acute needs and redirect resources as required. The MYA is guided by the Department’s 2023-2026 Strategic Plan. A new Appeal for 2023-2026 was launched to accompany the implementation of DPPA’s latest Strategic Plan, calling for a total of $170 million over four years.  
  
Voluntary funding helps DPPA to raise extrabudgetary funding for conflict prevention and conflict resolution and enables the Department to maintain crucial efforts in support of Special Political Missions (SPMs), providing political analysis as well as mediation and electoral support to a multitude of partners. The MYA is also an incubator of ideas and increasingly invests in new areas, such as innovation and new technologies or by helping expand on the interlinkages between climate change and peace and security challenges. It supports key thematic priorities of the Department, including women, peace and security.   
  
As a uniquely flexible tool, the MYA is positioned to seize opportunities and enable rapid responses in pursuit of DPPA’s conflict prevention, peacemaking and peacebuilding mandate. On average, two-thirds of contributions are unearmarked, providing DPPA with the flexibility to channel funding to where it is needed most.   
  
Activities funded by the MYA contribute directly to the achievement of SDGs, in particular SDG 5 (gender equality and women’s empowerment), 16 (peace, justice, and strong institutions), and 17 (partnerships).   
  
The dataset shall be updated biannually (July and December).
