What is the PSEA Network?
Under the auspices of the RC/HC and overseen by the Senior Inter-Agency PSEA Coordinator, the PSEA Network in Ukraine is the primary body for technical-level coordination and implementation of PSEA activities in line with the UNCT/HCT PSEA Action Plan and multi-year Strategy. The PSEA Network (183) composed of over 180 members covering the whole of Ukraine with sub-national structures supports the operationalization of activities. The PSEA Network is supported by a Technical Working Group consisting of PSEA/safeguarding experts and the Senior Strategic Steering Committee integrating key Heads of UN and NGOs in country. The presence of the PSEA coordination structure does not lessen the responsibility of individual network members to develop, implement, and strengthen internal PSEA programs at the country level. Senior management within each member organization is accountable for PSEA within their organizations. The PSEA Network is responsible for implementing coordinated activities between members to minimize the risk of sexual exploitation and abuse by those serving affected populations, ensure effective response when incidents do arise, and raise awareness of SEA in Ukraine. The PSEA Network activities follow a victim-centred approach and will respect the principles of safety, confidentiality, respect, and non-discrimination. Network membership is open to all UN agencies, INGOs, and NGOs operating in Ukraine. Each UN agency and member under the HNRP or IASC coordination structures should designate one PSEA focal point and one alternate to attend Network meetings and activities. It is recommended that non-governmental or civil society organizations with cooperation agreements with the United Nations appoint a focal point. With a view to ensure localization and country ownership, membership in the Network is strongly encouraged to non-governmental or civil society organizations working in the humanitarian response or affected populations.
