Summary
Several cases of sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) involving peacekeepers have been
reported during MINUSTAH. Throughout the years, the United Nations has elaborated
an extensive framework concerning sexual exploitation and peacekeeping abuse.
However, this issue is still re-occurrent in field missions.
MINUSTAH serves as an illustrative case study in this regard. In Haiti, the number of
alleged victims is much higher than what has been officially reported. Victims often do
not report to the respective authorities for a variety of reasons. The influence of socialcultural
norms in the deployment of a peacekeeping mission shall be analyzed, aiming at
understanding the root causes of the SEA issue.
