Aimed at relief workers who spend a lot of their time in the field travelling between different field sites and therefore are regularly exposed to potential insecure environments. This is a foundational course available for all staff involved with humanitarian work; and is available in both Arabic and English.

This 3 day course aims to enhance the skills and awareness of relief workers to follow appropriate security guidelines and actions when working in insecure environments. It will help the individual aid worker to understand better his/her role in a given context and how the individual’s behaviour impacts on their personal and their team’s security and safety.

 Describe why it’s important to follow and implement a security strategy based on the context in which their agency is working.
