Hostile Environment Awareness Training for Humanitarian Organizations (HEAT) Course

October 14 @ 8:00 am - October 25 @ 5:00 pm EAT

This training on Hostile Environment Awareness Training for Humanitarian Organizations enable people working in hostile environments to cope. The nature of humanitarian organizational staff often requires staff to operate in unstable and insecure environments. Even though an armed conflict may have not yet occurred or hostilities have ceased, there may be periods of unrest caused by uncontrolled elements making use of the current unstable situation in the host country or the settlement of the conflict. In many countries, risks for the personal safety of mission members may also include organized crime, theft, assault and hostage taking. Therefore, certain patterns of security awareness and behavior must be part of the
toolbox of each project staff.

The training endeavors to provide comprehensive coverage of the relevant issues in this area and is designed to put participants in stressful situations, preparing them for worst-case scenarios. Essential classroom theory is complemented by simulations of real-life situations.
