The HEAT Book 2. 0. Threats evolve. Erosion of humanitarian law, advances in artificial intelligence, shifting global and regional power balances, climate change, and ever more sophisticated weaponry collide to create an unprecedented number of crises worldwide. For years, HEAT (Hostile Environment Awareness Training) courses have equipped aid workers, journalists, adventurers, and ordinary travelers with the skills to react to and survive dangers commonly found in volatile, hazardous environments. This second edition of The HEAT book is intended as a pocket-friendly, readily accessible training alternative for people on the move. Featuring two new scenarios on top of the original fourteen, plus eight additional chapters including real-world examples covering contemporary dangers and personal safety themes, The HEAT Book 2. 0 brings you up to speed on the latest thinking on personal responses to both conventional and emerging threats in the field. How would you handle an ambush, a violent protest, an impromptu checkpoint, or a serious accident. What are your options during a robbery. What if you stumbled into a minefield. How would you react to an active-shooter incident. In what ways do your individual traits affect your personal-risk profile. What exactly is a PEP kit, and how do you use a tourniquet. How does duty of care relate to personal safety. How do you carry out a personal risk assessment. The HEAT Book 2. 0 provides clear answers and best-practice, field-tested advice on all these questions and more. It is a "mini-HEAT"-ready wherever you are-offering the essential knowledge you need when things go very, very wrong. Whether you are about to travel, are already deployed, or are simply curious about the subject, let The HEAT Book 2. 0 be your personal safety resource. Accompany Ashley and her colleagues on their first humanitarian mission to Zembala-a Central African nation in crisis. Navigate the country's many threats, make choices that lead to different outcomes, and absorb practical safety advice, recommendations, tips, and the dos and don'ts of traveling or working in high-risk contexts. Your job is to survive. Can you take the HEAT. There's only one way to find out.
