What is Movement Control? (UN Definition) Movement Control(MOVCON) is defined as the planning, routing, scheduling and control of personnel and freight movements over lines of communication. It also refers to the organization responsible for these functions, whether at UN Headquarters, regional level, mission level or within the member states’ national and/or military organizations. Strategic Movementis the movement of personnel and/or their equipment between their home country’s national mounting base and/or their sea and airports of embarkation, and the UN mission area of operations (AO). Tactical (Mission Level) Movementis the movement of personnel and/or their equipment from major points of entry (i.e. air and sea ports) to destinations within a UN mission area of operations (AO). Mission level movement control sections are responsible for organizing and executing intra-mission (and limited inter-mission) movement control of personnel and equipment.
