Christian Aid: Integral in Risk Prevention

Paper Summary:

This short examination into Christian Aid sheds some light on how this organization goes about lessening the risks to many of these countries. It explains how it employs a proactive plan that attacks the roots of a given society, instead of a more reactive plan that is based around the production of high priced country studies that only report the damage and are not taking action to change the factors which are resulting in high reported risk for many of these countries.

From the Paper:

"Is risk in fact always "probability-centered" as posed by Vertzberger, or can some organizations affect change to bring about more definite and fair calculations? Christian Aid, a humanitarian organization that works in over 50 countries around the world towards improving the quality of life with special attention towards the problems of poverty and injustice is one that is deeply rooted in the political risk industry. Typically, it might be considered less important in the risk industry than the major players like the International Institute of Strategic Studies, but because Christian Aid tackles the root of the risk that is present in many of these underdeveloped countries, I suggest their role is much more integral in the prevention of these risks."
