In an increasingly interconnected, globalized and complex world, where the importance of
multilateral dialogue and cooperation is ever growing, the demand from major stakeholders
in international relations for training and capacity development in the field of multilateral
diplomacy is constantly rising.
Over the past decade, UNITAR has been actively engaged in supporting governments and
other actors by transferring knowledge and know-how on the practices, policies and
procedures of the multilateral working environment and the United Nations intergovernmental
machinery as well as on contemporary diplomacy-related topics.
In the rapid dynamic change happening in all technical and administrative areas, crises have
become one of the challenges that face many organizations. When a crisis occurs, it
becomes crucial in the journey of any institution and must be addressed effectively through a
successful crisis management approach. With climate change having a global impact on
environment, expectations are higher for many crises and natural disasters to come,
requiring the ability to plan, predict and anticipate future disasters and projected risks. The
need arises to prepare contingency plans and to train people on implementing them, hence
risks and crises can be successfully and wisely managed.
The ”Professional Diploma: Certified Expert in Risks and Crisis Management and Control”,
previously offered exclusively by HBMSU, is now developed in partnership with UNITAR, in which UNITAR would take over the delivery of two modules in
English, to produce a co-designed training activity.
Overall Goal
The training aims to develop skills of learners in managing risks, crises, and disasters, focusing on providing the knowledge on
how to address and manage them to ensure continuous activities and operations of
organizations while avoiding the effects of crises. The secondary purpose is to make the diploma more applicable from an international perspective. The training will be delivered online.
