United Nations ONUMOZ Mozambique Peacekeeping Medal Ribbon – New Old Stock
An unused New Old Stock (NOS) medal ribbon representing the United Nations Operation in Mozambique (ONUMOZ), a peacekeeping mission established to support the end of the Mozambican Civil War.
Historical Background
Mozambique experienced a prolonged civil war from 1977 until 1992, fought primarily between the ruling FRELIMO government and the opposition RENAMO movement.
Following years of conflict, the two sides signed the General Peace Agreement in Rome on October 4, 1992, establishing a framework for a ceasefire, demobilization, and national reconciliation.
On December 16, 1992, the United Nations Security Council established ONUMOZ through Resolution 797 to help implement the peace agreement.
The mission monitored the ceasefire, supervised the separation and demobilization of military forces, supported humanitarian operations, and assisted preparations for democratic elections.
ONUMOZ also helped oversee Mozambique's first multiparty national elections, held in October 1994.
The mission formally concluded in December 1994.
Why It Was Awarded
The ONUMOZ Medal recognized qualifying military personnel, civilian police, and other eligible participants who served with the United Nations Operation in Mozambique.
The decoration commemorates their contributions to peacekeeping, disarmament, national reconciliation, and the restoration of stability following years of civil conflict.
