OUR MISSION
Starting with Insurance For NGO workers we quickly identified a need for comprehensive insurance in other high-risk roles production, photography, videography and a wider range of NGO and humanitarian sectors roles as well as the demand for organisations and contractors to be able to arrange cover for their local teams -- including NGO and humanitarian sectors support, drivers, translators, fixers and guides -- as part of their duty of care.
Each month Insurance For Group protects a diverse range of individuals and organisations carrying out vital work in some of the most challenging locations in the world providing more than US$140 million in cover across all policies.
