HDFF’s Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT) Field Travel Survival is a basic safety training designed primarily for humanitarian workers and short-term mission travelers from (I)NGOs, governmental and UN organizations, as well as international civilians and corporate personnel. It addresses the safety needs of those working/based in, or traveling through “Yellow or Green Countries,” which are classified as medium or low-risk areas by insurance and foreign service advisories. The training aims to increase participants’ security awareness and survival mindset in unknown environments, and for participants to be prepared if a situation turns hostile during field travel and/or field-based work. The training is led by experienced and culturally sensitive trainers, ensuring the highest level of safety for all participants. The training is highly participatory and scenario-based, with predominantly practical
field simulations.
Objectives:
To enhance the resilience of personnel by developing a field survival mindset that increases proactive and responsive capabilities in unknown/hostile environments. To develop skills for mitigating risks while on the move, such as vehicle familiarization, medical preparedness and casualty treatment, pre-travel planning and journey management, orientation (e.g. compass, maps), checkpoint behavior, handling a damaged vehicle, firefighting in the field, and evacuation. To develop confidence in participants’ capabilities to cope with challenging situations.
