However, UN Mission deployment in South Sudan since July 8th 2011 saw nothing but outbreaks of wars. This raises critical question on the effect of the United Nations Mission on sustainable peace in Juba, South Sudan. The objective of the research was to assess the effect of the United Nations Mission and sustainable peace in Juba, South Sudan. The study covers the research design, study population, sample size, sampling techniques, data collection instruments, data sources, data processing, data analysis, ethical considerations, and limitation of the study. The study revealed that for unit increase in United Nations Mission peace consolidation, it increases sustainable peace by 1.376 with (p. value <0.001). It revealed that for every one-unit increase in United Nations Mission longer-term state building, it decreases sustainable peace by -0.222 with (p. value = 0.412). Lastly for every one-unit increase in United Nations Mission training of security forces, it increases sustainable peace by 1.170 with (p. value <0.001. The study concluded that not all supports United Nations Mission provided led to sustainable peace. Evidence showed that United Nations Mission long-term state building alone, does not lead to sustainable peace. The study recommended that UNMISS should bring in holdout groups to join peace process. It recommended that IGAD members' state should unify their divergent. Interests and work for common goal. It further recommended that the UNSC should enforce armed embargo, travel ban and assets freezing imposed on individuals derailing peace efforts.
