In WHO, the term 'sexual misconduct' is an all-inclusive phrase used to address all forms of prohibited sexual behaviour by staff members or collaborators towards colleagues or members of the public in locations where WHO staff and/or collaborators operate. The term includes sexual exploitation, abuse, harassment and all other related forms of sexual misconduct.
WHO's leadership, staff and Member States are deeply committed to accelerating our collective work in preventing and responding to sexual misconduct. However, we all know and acknowledge that more could and should be done, and done quickly.
This channel provides learning resources to strengthen competencies to prevent and respond to sexual misconduct. Learning and continuous education are essential to capacitate personnel and our implementing partners to meet the standards set by WHO's policies and Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, as well as the requirements and expectations set by the United Nations system, the Inter-Agency Standing Committee and its partners.
