Description | GISF x ICVA are hosting a webinar on ‘Staying Safe in the Spotlight – Personal Security for Public-Facing NGO Staff’. As NGO leaders and advocates become increasingly visible—and vulnerable—in a polarised world, understanding personal security has never been more critical. This one hour GISF webinar explores the evolving risks facing public-facing staff, from online harassment and doxxing to legal intimidation and political targeting. Learn practical strategies to protect your digital, physical, and mental wellbeing, and understand how your organisation can better support staff under public scrutiny. Whether you’re a manager, policy lead, or advocacy specialist, this session will help you navigate today’s hostile climate with greater confidence and resilience. Please share this invitation with colleagues in your organisation. |
