Event Details

A presentation aimed at anyone considering working in a hostile environment; 19 March 2011, Manchester


This introductory workshop is aimed at anyone who might be considering working in a hostile environment - whether a conflict zone, a natural disaster area, or any area where there might be a risk to your personal safety.

Former soldier turned consultant and film-maker Adnan Sarwar considers the following:

  • Intro - what is a hostile environment?
  • Intelligence - how do you find out what you need to know about the place you're going to?
  • Preparation - what do you need to do before you go? Including writing a security protocol checklist, vaccinations etc.
  • Case studies - including when things went wrong, and where to find further information.


Note that this is an introduction only, and we strongly recommend that if you're planning to visit a hostile environment you follow up with further training. This workshop is intended to increase your chances of survival; however all hostile environments are dangerous and Redeye cannot be held responsible for any injury that may occur to you outside the workshop. 

The ticket price of £10 goes towards Redeye's costs. The speaker has waived his fee for this event but asks that all participants also donate a minimum of £5 towards his charity. See www.justgiving.com/adnansarwar
