TURN ASSISTANCE [6 records]

Subject field(s)
  • Organizations, Administrative Units and Committees
  • Sociology
OBS

The idea of forming an association was first thought of in the fall of 1990 by Antonio and Erlinda Insigne after visiting a friend's mom who died suddenly. Erlinda thought that perhaps there should be an association in the community that could provide assistance for the Filipino-Canadians who needed help. So she shared the idea with one of her neighbors who in turn spoke with other neighbors. A meeting was held and thus the Filipino-Canadian Association of Vaughan(FCAV) was formed.

OBS

Established in 1993 under UN Security Council resolution 846, UNOMUR was given the mandate to monitor the border between Uganda and Rwanda and verify that no military assistance-lethal weapons, ammunition and other material of possible military use-was being provided across this border. While the tragic turn of events in Rwanda in April 1994 prevented UNOMUR from fully implementing its mandate, the Observer Mission played a useful role as a confidence-building mechanism in the months following the conclusion of the Arusha Peace Agreement and during UNAMIR's initial efforts to defuse tensions between the Rwandese parties and to facilitate the implementation of that agreement.

OBS

Établie en 1993 en vertu de la résolution 846 du Conseil de sécurité, la MONUOR a reçu pour mandat de surveiller la frontière séparant l'Ouganda et le Rwanda et de veiller à ce qu'aucune aide militaire - armes meurtrières, munitions et autres matériels pouvant avoir un usage militaire - ne traverse cette frontière. Même si les tragiques événements survenus au Rwanda en avril 1994 ont empêché la MONUOR de remplir pleinement son mandat, la Mission d'observation a joué un rôle utile comme mécanisme d'instauration de la confiance dans les mois qui ont suivi la conclusion de l'Accord de paix d'Arusha et durant les efforts initiaux de la MINUAR en vue de désamorcer les tensions entre les parties rwandaises et de faciliter la mise en œuvre de l'accord.
