2016.19 Policy on Records Management

Abstract

Records are our institutional memory and represent a vital asset to support daily functions and operations. DPKO and DFS are committed to maintaining a records management programme that meets the operational needs and accountability requirements of both departments and their field operations, while ensuring that records of archival value that document the history of DPKO, DFS and field operations are transferred to the custody of the United Nations Archives and Records Management Section (ARMS). The aim of this Policy is to establish and communicate the framework and responsibilities for the Peacekeeping Records management programme.
