United Nations UNMIH Haiti Peacekeeping Medal Ribbon – New Old Stock
An unused New Old Stock (NOS) medal ribbon representing the United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH), an international peacekeeping operation established to assist in restoring stability and democratic government in Haiti during the 1990s.
Historical Background
In September 1991, Haiti's democratically elected president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, was overthrown in a military coup, triggering a prolonged period of political instability and international intervention.
On September 23, 1993, the United Nations Security Council established UNMIH through Resolution 867 to assist in modernizing Haiti's armed forces and establishing a new police force.
Although the mission was initially delayed by political and security conditions, UNMIH became fully operational in 1995 following the restoration of Haiti's constitutional government.
United Nations personnel helped maintain a secure environment, supported the development of Haiti's national police, and assisted in creating conditions for democratic elections.
The mission formally concluded on June 30, 1996, and was succeeded by the United Nations Support Mission in Haiti (UNSMIH).
Why It Was Awarded
The UNMIH Medal recognized qualifying military and civilian police personnel who served with the United Nations Mission in Haiti.
The decoration commemorates their contributions to international peacekeeping, political stabilization, and the restoration of democratic institutions.
