Article-Summary: 

Following reports of sexual exploitation of host populations in several peacekeeping missions in Africa, the UN Mission in Burundi, known as ONUB, has established a Code of Conduct Unit and appointed a gender adviser to make sure this problem does not arise in Burundi. The code of conduct unit and the gender adviser are to help train and sensitise the mission's staff on the expected code of behaviour.
