The Impact of Epidemics on Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment

This evidence digest draws on evidence from past infectious disease epidemics to explore how the risks of sexual exploitation, abuse and sexual harassment (SEAH) increase during these outbreaks, and some good practice examples of how the aid sector has addressed these issues. The digest is arranged in two sections - the first section reviews selected evidence on the increased risks of SEAH, whilst the second section highlights guidance and resources on preventing and responding to SEAH during COVID-19.
