“Ideally, every organization should have a comprehensive security plan – including digital security – but for smaller organizations, this is often unrealistic due to limited resources. … Our security measures have often focused on immediate, operational risk assessment rather than a comprehensive, long-term strategy. Much of this has depended on securing a donor willing to cover the associated costs—an opportunity many NGOs may not have.”
- Are you ever struggling with implementing measures due to financial restrictions? Think about the possible ways of tailoring the necessary security and safety measures to your capabilities.
Module 2 covers the third stage of the risk management process: the implementation of safety and security measures. Through three video lectures, you will learn how to tailor safety and security measures to fit your unique context, considering factors such as available resources, staff capacities, and organizational needs. This module blends theory with practical examples, guiding you in developing and implementing effective measures suited to your specific context. Additionally, you will gain tips on how to collaborate with external consultants to support you throughout the risk management process.
Remember to explore both topics of this module and the additional materials. After completion, you will be encouraged to apply your knowledge in an exercise and the Module 2 quiz.
