  • Humanitarian work is inherently stressful and staff are often impacted by critical incidents. Research has shown if staff members are provided with stress management skills and support after critical incidents, their well-being is significantly improved both in the short and long terms.

    With the critical incidents frequently occurring, there is a need within humanitarian organisations to support staff members who experience such incidents, and to ensure this is reflected within the work environments.  Through interactive learning this course will provide the knowledge and skills require to support staff before and after critical incidents occur.
