United Nations Security Council Resolution 1944, adopted unanimously on October 14, 2010, after recalling previous resolutions on Haiti, including resolutions 1542 (2004), 1576 (2004), 1608 (2005), 1658 (2006), 1702 (2006), 1743 (2006), 1780 (2007), 1840 (2008), 1892 (2009), 1908 (2010) and 1927 (2010), the Council renewed the mandate of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) until October 15, 2011.
In the preamble of the resolution, the Council recognised that the earthquake in January 2010 brought new challenges and opportunities to Haiti. The Haitian government and authorities were called upon to ensure the holding of general elections on November 28, 2010. The Council stated that the reconstruction of Haiti was crucial to long-term security and stability, and that it should go hand in hand with economic and social development. Donors were urged to fulfil their pledges towards Haiti at a conference on March 31, 2010. The Organization of American States (OAS) was praised for its efforts towards electoral preparations.
