VIVAnews - It is recorded that the UN peace keeping troops have committed quite an alarming percentage of sexual abuse. According to the latest data provided by the United Nations Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (Monuc), the UN contingent perpetrated 40 percent of sexual abuse.
An officer at Monuc Unit of Code of Conduct, Hamina, said that each commander from every contingent must prevent sexual abuse from being committed to their subordinates.
Therefore, drills or trainings to improve their understanding on the importance of discipline in working in Monuc/the United Nations will be required.
"In addition to affecting the victims and perpetrators, the UN mission will be disgraced," Hamina said on Tuesday, Jan 27.
The personnel on duty should be professional and respect the multicultural values embedded in the life of local inhabitants.
Through a drilling, it is expected that an understanding toward sexual deviation, especially sexual exploitation abuse (SEA) will be built. As a result, the knowledge can be disseminated to other personnel in the contingent.
The SEA prevention will be a significant factor that must be taken into consideration by every Monuc personnel.
Therefore, the Indonesian Military contingent launched prevention efforts by imposing curfew, obligating its personnel to wear uniform outside of the camp, prohibiting its personnel to go to places suspected as prostitution zones and providing recreation spots in the camps as well as organizing regular religious activities.
