The R4V inter-agency response is prioritizing collective PSEA activies within the framework of the RMRP (Refugee and Migrant Response Plan). The R4V PSEA Mapping is an inter-agency initiative which was initially agreed within the Regional R4V Inter-Sector Coordination Group (ISCG). The key objective of the R4V PSEA Mapping was to conduct a stocktaking exercise of PSEA initiatives within national and sub-regional Platforms to provide a first step for regional PSEA strengthening as a joint effort between R4V Platform partners, as accountability towards PSEA standards is also a collective effort. The mapping aimed to analyse and draw on conclusions on existing activities and programs addressing PSEA, as well as identifying needs and gaps within the framework of the R4V partner organizations. The mapping was guided by the Inter-Agency Steering Committee’s (IASC) PSEA Minimum Operating Standards (MOS) based on the IASC Six Core Principles Relating to Sexual Exploitation and Abuse. This document will serve as the baseline for all future R4V PSEA initiatives.

The Mapping to create an Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) baseline was conducted to take stock and map the current implementation conditions of AAP across the R4V regional response. The exercise aimed to provide a clearer picture of the existing gaps, challenges, and capacities that need addressing to strengthen AAP and identify opportunities for the increased implementation of collective participatory approaches that put affected populations at the centre of the response.

2021 has been marked by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccination campaigns to mitigate them. For R4V partners, most of the work in the first half of 2021 revolved around supporting refugees and migrants (R&Ms) to cope with increased vulnerability due to the pandemic, ensuring their access to COVID-19 vaccination campaigns and related health treatments, adapting activities to remote modalities when possible and continuing actions and projects planned in the RMRP 2021.
