Eva discusses how the humanitarian principles be used within an organisations’ security risk management approach, and why people might assume that security management within the humanitarian sector can undermine these principles.

We also talk about the fact that many field security managers come from a military background, and how it's possible to bridge the perceived gap between the humanitarian principles and security risk management.

In the first episode of the series, we speak to Loretta Minghella, the CEO of Christian Aid.

We discuss why effective security risk management is so important to Christian Aid, how they have created and maintained the security culture within the organisation, and what the main drivers are for change and continuing improvement.

The EISF in Conversation podcast investigates different perspectives and aspects of humanitarian security risk management.

The aim is to raise awareness of security risk management, encourage a better understanding of what security risk management can achieve, and start conversations in and outside the sector.

The European Interagency Security Forum (EISF) is an independent network of security focal points who represent European-based humanitarian NGOs operating internationally.
