In response to demand from our members, and after a number of serious incidents, USHA has developed guidance on Safe Student Placements and Safety in Fieldwork.
One of the keynote seminar speakers will be Lloyd Figgins one of the world’s leading speakers on the subject of risk mitigation, travel safety and crisis management.
Lloyd is well recognised on the international circuit for his relaxed and informative style, making him popular with audiences all over the globe. As an international risk mitigator, Lloyd has encountered risk in many forms, including coming face to face with armed militia in the jungles of Colombia, extracting clients from a coup in Madagascar and establishing evacuation routes for personnel operating deep inside the DRC. He now uses his experiences to teach organisations and individuals the skills required to operate safely overseas. Lloyd is also a qualified Senior Incident Investigator and has led many investigations into incidents overseas.
