The United Nations Verification Mission in Colombia is a Special Political Mission established in 2016 by the UN Security Council to verify the Final Peace Agreement's implementation and assist Colombia in its commitment to ending the conflict and building peace. The Mission verifies the implementation of five points of the 2016 Final Peace Agreement between the Government of Colombia and the FARC-EP. The UN Mission supports Colombians' efforts to resolve conflicts through dialogue and, in that framework, verifies the implementation of the ceasefire between the Government and the Ejército de Liberación Nacional-ELN, also mandated by the Security Council. The United Nations Verification Mission in Colombia (UNVMC) verifies the implementation of five sections of the 2016 Final Agreement: section 1 on comprehensive rural reform; section 3.2 on the reintegration of former combatants of FARC-EP in economic, social, and political matters; section 3.4 on security guarantees for individuals in the process of reintegration and communities and organizations across the country; section 5.1.2 on the restorative sentences imposed by the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (SJP); and section 6.2 on the Ethnic Chapter of the Final Agreement.
