IASC Rules for Sexual Behavior of Humanitarian Workers

Preventing sexual exploitation and abuse in the humanitarian sector starts with ensuring everyone understands the basic principles. That means making the information available in simple terms and in local languages. The IASC Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) and Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) Task Team and Translators without Borders (TWB) have developed a plain-English version of the six principles. TWB is now translating it into 100 languages that humanitarian staff and affected people around the world will understand.

The Task Team, in collaboration with TWB, is delighted to publish a plain-language version of the PSEA principles in the first 58 language versions (as of August 2018). Other languages will follow in the coming weeks and months.
