Current and Past Recommendations to the UN Security Council (Monthly Action Points)
Haiti (October 2011)
The Council is expected to renew the mandate of MINUSTAH SCR 1944. In its discussions, the Council should address:
- Capacity to include initiatives for the empowerment and protection of women and girls in light of continued concerns for violence against women in camps, including sexual violence, and access to services for survivors of violence;
- Concrete measures to improve security for women and girls by identifying best practices and feedback from community patrols;
- Strongly reiterate the obligation to enforce the UN zero-tolerance policy on sexual exploitation and abuse, as well as on any other kind of abuses committed against the civilian population by all MINUSTAH personnel, and the need for troop- and police-contributing countries (TCCs / PCCs) to ensure that acts involving their personnel are properly investigated and punished and for the UN Secretariat to actively follow-up on measures taken to ensure the administration of justice in those countries.
