A Shifting Perspective: Aligning Your NGO’s Travel Risk Management Strategy to Our New(ish) Normal

For a community of professionals who saw travel as essential to their work — missions, field visits, delegations — COVID-19 and its variants continues to cause a significant shift in the NGO sector.

These pandemic-related realities have created the need to shift perspectives, strategize new ways of thinking, and have many NGOs asking some very important questions about travel risk management and duty of care including:

    • How can we effectively assess the risks associated with travel for our international staff; AND simultaneously assess the risks to our in-country travelers?
    • What does an effective travel risk management strategy ‘look like’ for NGOs in this new(ish) normal?

We recently teamed up with our colleagues at Allegiant Global Partners and All Hands and Hearts to answer these questions (and more!) in this informative webinar hosted by our friends at Humentum.

Panel:

    • Eric White, On Call International
    • Gary Pitts, All Hands, and Hearts
    • Anne Brnger, Allegiant Global Partners

In this thought-provoking webinar, the panel discussed NGOs’ shifting perspectives on travel, as well as the resulting global risk management procedures that can help NGOs protect the interests of their programs, their missions, and their staff. Drawing on White’s expansive experience in global risk assessment, Brnger’s knowledge of duty of care solutions for the NGO sector, and Pitt’s hands-on, industry experience, participants will leave with lessons learned and best practices for effectively aligning their travel risk management strategies to our new(ish) normal.
