Organisation Background
Founded in 2011, the International NGO Safety Organisation (INSO) has rapidly evolved from an innovative start-up to a globally recognized charity. We play a central role in humanitarian safety coordination, supporting more than 1,200 local and international NGOs across the world’s most insecure regions. Our mission is to alleviate the suffering of those in need by supporting the safety of humanitarian workers who risk their lives to serve others.
INSO provides a range of free services, including real-time incident tracking, analytical reports, safety-related data and mapping, crisis management support, staff orientations, and training. We also work at the global policy level to strengthen the evidence base and improve interagency coordination for a more effective and resilient humanitarian system.
Our work goes beyond saving individual lives to enable humanitarian operations in high-risk countries.
