DISN was initiated in 2014, when a number of CSO’s identified a need for a stronger focus on safety and security in the work done by the CSO’s abroad. This page therefore creates a platform where members can share experience, information and develop further and stronger safety policies together. DISN strives to strengthen safety and security risk management within the humanitarian sector particularly through networking, trainings and information sharing. The initiative is funded by Globalt Fokus till the end of 2016. The DISN is led by its members and therefore represent the needs of the members and the need for safety and security management in the humanitarian field.
