Strengthen your institution’s duty of care in an age of uncertainty
30.03.2026
International travel is essential to university life - enabling research, collaboration, fieldwork and global partnerships.
But as conflict in the Middle East drives wider geopolitical strain, alongside cyber threats, climate disruption, emerging diseases and rising mental health needs, institutions face a more complex and fast-moving duty of care landscape than ever before.
Our new whitepaper, Duty of care in an age of uncertainty: Travel risk management for Higher Education, provides a clear, practical guide to navigating these challenges and protecting your travelling staff, academics and students.
What it covers:
- How geopolitical, environmental, cyber and biosecurity threats are reshaping travel planning
- What good duty of care looks like in 2026 and how institutions can benchmark their readiness against ISO 31030 & ISO 31031
- How to recognise, prepare for and respond to psychological challenges abroad.
- Steps institutions can take now to strengthen resilience and support their travellers.
Build a safer, more resilient travel risk framework for your institution.
