Safe and Secure Approaches in Field Environments SSAFE and Individual First Aid Kit 2.0 IFAK 2.0 certification trainings

Intake Ongoing

The SSAFE and IFAK courses are delivered over four consecutive days and respond to a demand from the UN system and relevant partners to train staff who need to be deployed at short notice to volatile areas of the world. United Nations (UN) and associated personnel who work in complex environments need to be equipped with specific safety and security skills and knowledge. The SSAFE training curriculum is based on United Nations Department for Safety and Security (UNDSS) and UNSSC standard modules and combines theoretical lessons, demonstrations, group work, practical exercises and field simulations.
