Safety and Security
Introduction
The United Nations (UN) is often called to act swiftly in defence of peace, to provide humanitarian assistance and to uphold human rights, often deploying personnel at short notice to volatile, high-risk areas. Their safety is essential.
Equipping personnel for high-risk environments
At UNSSC, we serve UN entities, international organizations and NGOs by providing cutting-edge training to strengthen security awareness and preparedness. Our programmes prepare personnel to manage and respond decisively to safety and security incidents, while our advanced safe driver courses build critical skills for operating in challenging environments. In addition, we certify trainers to amplify reach, ensuring safety and security knowledge and skills are shared widely across the system.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all: our learning experiences are easily customized to the needs of our partners. Beyond delivery, we ensure impact: all our programmes are evaluated not only for satisfaction, but also for learning, behaviour change and organizational results.
