"Increasingly over the last decade, humanitarian actors have borrowed #riskmanagement approaches from the private sector that have helped them identify the inherent #risks to their work. Humanitarian actors have similarly copied ways for framing their response to those risks, deploying response strategies for transferring, avoiding and reducing risk and accepting or (less frequently) sharing identified risks. This in turn allows the humanitarian actor to evaluate whether the risk that is left – what is described as residual risk – is of a level that they can tolerate and hence accept, allowing them to proceed with their work.
