DESCRIPTION:\n	(A/RES/49/59)\n\n\n\n	Since the founding of the United Na
	tions in 1945\, hundreds of brave men and women have lost their lives in i
	ts service. During the 1990s\, the growing number and scale of UN peacekee
	ping missions put many more at risk. More lives were lost during the 1990s
	 than in the previous four decades combined.\n\n\n\n	At that time\, an awa
	reness began to develop among Member States and staff\, that the more acti
	ve the UN became in the future\, the more it was going to be targeted.\n\n
	\n\n	The first resolution on staff security was adopted by the UN Security
	 Council in September 1993.\n\n\n\n	Complex negotiations subsequently took
	 place in the Sixth (Legal) Committee of the General Assembly on an intern
	ational legal convention to protect UN personnel.\n\n\n\n	The result of th
	ose negotiations was the Convention on the Safety of United Nations and As
	sociated Personnel\, which was adopted by the UN General Assembly on 9 Dec
	ember 1994.\n\n\n\n	Origin\n\n	The International Day of Solidarity with De
	tained and Missing Staff Members is marked each year on the anniversary of
	 the abduction of Alec Collett\, a former journalist who was working for t
	he United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Ne
	ar East (UNRWA) when he was abducted by armed gunman in 1985.  His body w
	as finally found in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley in 2009.\n\n\n\n	The Internat
	ional Day of Solidarity with Detained and Missing Staff Members has taken 
	on even greater importance in recent years\, as attacks against the United
	 Nations intensify.  This is a day to mobilize action\, demand justice an
	d strengthen our resolve to protect UN staff and peacekeepers\, as well as
	 our colleagues in the non-governmental community and the press.\n\n\n\n	P
	urpose\n\n	This is a day to mobilize action\, demand justice and strengthe
	n our resolve to protect UN staff and peacekeepers\, as well as our collea
	gues in the non-governmental community and the press.\n\n
