After being bumped in a large crowd you notice that your passport has been stolen from your bag. What would you, as a new traveler, do in this situation? Unfortunately, tourists are often very susceptible to dangers abroad, from theft to large-scale crises. It is crucial that travelers be aware of serious circumstances which might arise and cause trouble for them so that they can remain calm when it is time to take action.
This course is divided into two parts. First, topics intended to help prevent emergencies by ensuring a traveler’s personal safety and security are covered. Second, topics related to handling emergencies that may actually happen abroad are discussed, including: potential emergencies you may encounter and assisting organizations that can provide help.
No prior travel knowledge is required!
