正文(英文) | 13/07/2019 - Members of the OECD’s Development Assistance Committee (DAC) – 29 donor countries and the EU – agreed on a comprehensive set of recommendations aimed at preventing sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment in the aid sector.
“Today is momentous for the DAC and for the entire development community. The DAC is the first multilateral body to agree to hold ourselves to account in the battle to eradicate sexual exploitation and abuse,” said DAC Chair Susanna Moorehead, after the 30 DAC members adopted the text on 12 July 2019. “But success depends on DAC members actually implementing this Recommendation, as well as a cultural shift in organisations and a permanent behavioural change by perpetrators.” “This is a clear acknowledgement that the entire development co-operation community is accountable for the deplorable abuses by some aid workers against people in the most vulnerable contexts,” said Jorge Moreira da Silva, OECD Director of Development Co-operation. “Long-overdue fixes need to be made at every point of the responsibility chain – in aid policies, aid delivery, and support for victims and survivors.” The DAC Recommendation, which non-DAC donor countries can also adhere to, states that countries should:
While not legally binding, DAC Recommendations – such as the DAC Recommendation on the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus – represent a strong political commitment to the principles and policy recommendations they contain on behalf of DAC members. In addition, the DAC Recommendation instructs the OECD’s Network on Gender Equality to monitor its implementation and report thereon to the DAC no later than five years following its adoption and at least every ten years thereafter. The full text of the DAC Recommendation, together with relevant background information, is available on the OECD Compendium of Legal Instruments: DAC Recommendation on Ending Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment in Development Co-operation and Humanitarian Assistance.
The OECD’s DAC is a forum for donor countries to agree on international principles, rules and other standards for international development. The DAC also publishes data and analysis on official aid flows, carries out Peer Reviews of DAC members’ performance in delivering development assistance and prepares policy guidance through its networks and partnerships. For further information journalists are invited to contact Catherine Bremer in the OECD Media Office (+33 1 45 24 97 00.)
Working with over 100 countries, the OECD is a global policy forum that promotes policies to improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. |
