United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Jul 2011
InterWorks facilitated a Security Management Exercise (SMX) in Bangkok, Thailand for UNHCR staff from the entire operation from 4-6 July 2011.
The workshop in Bangkok consisted of a three-day SMX (modeled on the SMLP) for the management in Thailand. In addition, the training team delivered 5 one-day training sessions to BO Bangkok and the four Field Offices, as well as a two-hour session for UNHCR Wardens in Bangkok.
The purpose of the SMX is for a UNHCR country team to walk through the UN Security Risk Assessment process step-by-step based on UNHCR’s operations in the specific country and its operating environment. Staff are trained on how to conduct the process and are able to identify specific follow-up activities that are needed in order to enhance the security risk management of their operations.
