Prevention of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse should be a top priority for all humanitarian organizations and agencies. Sexual Exploitation and Abuse of beneficiaries by humanitarian workers is a serious violation of human rights and a protection failure. Humanitarian workers are obligated to uphold the highest standards of personal and professional conduct and dignity always to protect beneficiaries of assistance. It brings harm to those whom the UN and humanitarian agencies are mandated to protect and jeopardizes the reputation of these agencies and their ability to provide protection.
