OPERATIONAL SECURITY

Any Travel Cautions? (Select all that apply)*

Have you read the OPSEC SOP and taken any appropriate actions?*

Yes

What ‘real time’ intel is available in regard to the government insecurity? Is it escalating, static, or de-escalating? What historical data is available that could inform potential threat/risk? What has been the experience of foreigners in the region you are planning to deploy? View https://step.state.gov/ OR https://www.smartraveller.gov.au/ to get the latest updates for transit and destination countries.*

Is the Military action widespread or localized? What has been the experience of foreigners entering the area, what are the chances of encountering RTA (Real time attack)? Have you any previous experience of working in a high or medium conflict scenario? Is there any direct or inferred threat against foreigners entering the country?*

Do you understand the context of the civil unrest or demonstrations? Are you able to avoid areas where this unrest or demonstrations are taking place or could take place?*

Personal Threat: Is the person or organization known to you? Is there any corroborating data that would lead you to expect that the threat is real, imminent or intimidatory? How can you mitigate the risk of this threat?*

Could your deployment into the area bring additional risk to indigenous teams/leaders, i.e surveillance by government, police, military or opposing tribal groups. Have you discussed the potential risk with partners? If the risk outweighs the benefits consider using ZOOM to do ongoing training or coaching until the risk/threat de-escalates.*

Have you experienced any challenge, accusation, questioning or detainment in the destination country or transiting country where you may be a person of interest to local or national authorities? Give an explanation of any previous incidents.*

Is there active or historical data that would indicate overt hostility to the sharing of the Gospel and planting churches? Do you need to ensure that you are protecting your data, photo's, contact numbers, as per the OPSEC S.O.P?*
