Risk awareness is something that is embedded in the culture of humanitarian work but risk management is not. Therefore, it is critical for NGOs to understand how to identify and manage risk. This learning stream provides a platform for the NGO community to share their current practice, discuss, and learn from one another in order to better understand how to manage risks when working in the humanitarian sector and apply it in their day-to-day work.

This series includes webinars on the following topics:

• Risky Business: Reframing the fundamentals of risk management for humanitarians
• Security Risk Management and Duty of Care during COVID-19
• The Impact of Bank De-risking on Humanitarian Action
• Balancing Risk Appetite and Risk Tolerance in Humanitarian Operations
• Culture matters: Risks and opportunities related to leaderships, staff well-being and living our values
• Risk Management & Funding Partnerships

This webinar provides an in-depth look at how the guidelines endorsed by IASC can make humanitarian action more inclusive.
