Providing Aid in Insecure Environments: Trends in Policy and Operations Summary of quantitative analysis

Despite widespread perceptions of mounting threats to aid worker security, the lack of hard data has made it impossible to determine whether in fact violence against aid workers has increased relative to their numbers in the field. This gap in knowledge has meant that impressions and anecdotal evidence have driven operational security policy, and important trends may have been missed. To address this issue, the Center on International Cooperation and the Humanitarian Policy Group launched a joint study in 2004 to provide a quantitative analysis of the changing security environment for civilian aid operations, and to examine the related trends in security policy and operations. This report is based upon that study.
