Why does GAC require NGOs to report allegations to the PSEA unit?

The intent of requiring reporting is to ensure adequate measures are in place to address cases. GAC expects partners to have anonymous and confidential reporting mechanisms available to ensure that all allegations against organizations can be reported appropriately. These reports offer the necessary documentation to ensure best practices are being taken by the organization. GAC will track allegations to analyze trends and issues in SEA in international assistance. This information will be used to foster and support more effective prevention and response strategies with respect to SEA.
