ATMIS DRAWDOWN TRACKER

The African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) is the largest African Union mission which replaced the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) in March 2022 per the authorisation from the African Union (AU) Peace and Security Council (PSC) Communique 1068th and the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2628 (2022).

ATMIS drawdown refers to the gradual reduction and ultimate withdrawal of African Union peacekeeping forces from Somalia in the progressive transfer of security responsibility to the Somali Security Force in four phases: Phase I - reconfiguring ATMIS, Phase II - joint operations and partial transfer of forward operating bases, Phase III- decisive operations and handover of remaining forward operating bases, and Phase IV - the liquidation and full withdrawal of ATMIS.

This tracker functions as a monitoring tool for the diverse initiatives implemented by the key stakeholders responsible for carrying out the mission's drawdown from March 2022 to December 2024.
