This document aims to analyze the SSR implementation process in Haiti. Initially, SSR will be approached from the United Nations as the theoretical reference for these processes implementation. Then, the development of the SSR process in this country will be analyzed, identifying the application approach during the intervention of the different missions since 1994, establishing the recurring points on which the efforts were concentrated and characterizing the difficulties resulting from this implementation that have prevented the consolidation of an efficient and viable security system. The analysis is based on the 68 Reports of the Secretary General issued on the Haiti situation in seven missions deployed. It is a descriptive investigation, qualitative, documentary and with consultation of primary official sources. It is concluded that the results in terms of SSR in Haiti have been insufficient, despite the considerable effort made by the United Nations and the countries participating in peacekeeping operations, evidencing a greater parameterization of measurement of results in terms of RSS in the last two stages, MINUJUSTH and BINUH. The participation of the Colombian Military Forces in these missions was highlighted and recognized, especially with the deployment of 15 contingents of uniformed members of the National Police, leaving learning experiences and opportunities for institutional improvement.
