Before travelling ensure that you make time to research where you’re going, even if the country appears to be safe.
Excerpt from “The Blue Book: A Guide to Personal Security “
Make sure co-travellers understand how to behave and know their responsibilities whilst travelling and representing their organisation. Refrain from posting information about the trip on social media.
Before travelling, make sure that someone at home knows:
• The itinerary and any deviation from the scheduled itinerary.
• An emergency point of contact telephone number.
• Who you are going to see
• How you will travel
• When you expect to arrive and when you expect to return
• What to do in the event of undue delay.
