Evaluation of the prevention, response and victim support efforts against sexual exploitation and abuse by United Nations Secretariat staff and related personnel
Overview
The Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) assessed the relevance and effectiveness of the prevention, response and victim support efforts against sexual exploitation and abuse by United Nations Secretariat staff and related personnel covering the 2015–2018 period.
Efforts to prevent sexual exploitation and abuse in peace operations were constant and given the highest priority, although such efforts varied across the Secretariat and were inadequate in non-peacekeeping entities. The Office of the Special Coordinator on Improving the United Nations Response to Sexual Exploitation and Abuse and the Office of the Victims’ Rights Advocate contributed to visible progress and commitment across the system to address sexual exploitation and abuse, although their activities faced several challenges. There was an increase in initiatives and actors related to sexual exploitation and abuse but persisting issues linked to the outdated Secretary-General’s bulletin on special measures for protection from sexual exploitation and sexual abuse (ST/SGB/2003/13) affected the Organization’s response.
