Safety training

Since 2004, INSI has provided basic safety training free of charge to over 2,000 news media personnel in 29 countries.

These are all journalists and other members of the news team who otherwise would have received no professional guidance on how to survive the story.

The training consists of two-day tailor-made packages designed to meet the needs of local and regional journalists, addressing their specific requirements.

For security reasons, INSI may not always immediately make all of its safety training information public.

INSI would like to thank the following donors for their financial support: Open Society Institute, International Media Support, UNESCO, Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), British Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the International Federation of Journalists, The Institute for War and Peace Reporting, The Rory Peck Trust, the Reuters Foundation, the Berghof Foundation for Conflict Studies, the National Endowment for Democracy, the Vikes Foundations and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
