Investigations are left to the individual NGOs and UN agencies whose members are accused of being sexual assaulters. What happens is things get covered up, and the steps announced by the UN thus far have been reactive measures . So they are measures about training. The problem is there no investigative capacity in these task forces or agencies. What they do is they investigate the claims made to them through a series of mechanisms. However, many people are scared of coming forward worried family members who have jobs with these NGOs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Sara Beslow Beysolow Nyanti, the UN Resident Coordinator in South Sudan, was questioned on why the UN has proven so ineffective in eradicating this problem, she answered that Craze is right that mechanisms are put in place to take complaints and that they don\u2019t do their investigations.
