PSEAH Fund: Collective Resourcing of Collective Solutions
Sexual exploitation, abuse, and harassment (SEAH) have devastating impacts for victims and survivors, who often suffer long-term psychological, health, social and economic harm. SEAH are among the most egregious failures of accountability. SEAH erodes the trust of crisis-affected communities, reduces access to services, and undermines the collective integrity of humanitarian, development and peace-related (HDP) work. Protecting people from sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment (PSEAH) is fundamentally a question of human dignity and rights and is a critical for safe and effective programming.
While the challenge is significant, solutions are within reach. To fully prevent and respond to SEAH, we need a holistic approach, that puts victims and survivors at the centre. We need investments in collective solutions that are backed by evidence, that are innovative, locally led and are efficient.
CHS Alliance has established a PSEAH fund to enable investors to come together and collectively resource solutions to PSEAH. For more information, please see the PSEAH Fund proposal.
