Organizational risk management frameworks and common risk mitigation strategies for functional areas

The toolkit is essentially a guide to risk management for civil society organizations. It introduces the basics—like risk appetite, tolerance, and the management cycle—then provides frameworks and taxonomies to structure ongoing risk activities. It also emphasizes building a risk-aware culture and offers a practical reference with mitigation strategies and resources. In terms of coverage, it identifies nine major areas where CSOs face risk: business continuity, safeguarding, strategic and governance, financial, anti-fraud and corruption, information technology, people, safety and security, and supply chain.
