SST.10 Stay Safe Week Training (4X 1 day)
The environments in which humanitarians, development organizations, and corporates work tend to change continually. As a result, there is a growing demand for specific safety and security skill-building for implementing personnel as well as business/mission-oriented travelers.
Experts and trainers of HDFF are aware of the differing demands, with some security and program management looking to pick and choose topics, while others want the opportunity to refresh their knowledge. In order to meet this need, HDFF has designed a “Stay Safe Week (SSW)” consisting of four separate “one-day-events” on key safety and security issues relevant to general staff and travelers.
HDFF is encouraging you to pick and choose your own schedule based on your individual interests and needs.
Who should attend?
- Every staff or business/mission-oriented traveler
- Safety and security-related NGO personnel
- NGO HR and administrative personnel
- Interested laymen
What is included in the separate programs?
Day 1 – Leadership in Crisis: Security Risk Assessment
Are you able to conduct a basic safety and security assessment for programs and locations? In this session you will learn to identify risks and threats to your personnel and organization.

Day 3 – Evacuation Planning and Fire Fighting
Worldwide security incidents related to political unrest are often closely connected to fire, resulting in injuries and/or loss of life for personnel. In case of political turmoil or safety, incidents like big fires, do you know how to evacuate your staff? Did you ever draft an evacuation plan? For small fires, do you know how to use a fire extinguisher? This exercise is designed to teach evacuation planning and a practical hands-on fire extinguisher drill.
Day 4 – Incident Management/Incident Reporting & Communication in Crisis
Internal reporting and external communication are key elements of general personnel’s work. But do you know how to report a safety/security incident properly? Do you know how to make a short statement to the press in a crisis? Practical exercises and simple guidelines will help general personnel handle these challenges appropriately.
All sessions will be facilitated by a combination of HDFF trainers, as well as key professionals in the security and humanitarian sector. Participants are welcome to attend as many sessions as they like, reflecting their own or their organization’s needs.
