The Human Development Forum Foundation (HDFF) is a Thai independent
non-governmental organization without any political or religious
affiliations. HDFF was established in 2007 and operates out of Bangkok. We
provide cutting-edge research in the field of human security, as well as
safety and security training, (project) management training and security
consultancies. Aid workers are increasingly operating in insecure and
dangerous environments but projects usually do not provide any budget for
the safety of the implementing staff. HDFF, as a non-profit organization, is
able to offer reasonably priced safety and security trainings (in comparison
to for-profit corporations) to (I)NGO staff as HDFF believes it is vital to reach
organizations of all levels. HDFF furthermore conducts research on human
security issues, currently specializing on ASEAN 2015 related topics via a
conference series sponsored by The Asia Foundation. HDFF also conducts
security consultancies on Myanmar, as well as research for conferences for
international NGO’s. All of HDFF’s programs fit under our understanding of
development, i.e. providing knowledge to communities and leaders, to fulfill
HDFF’s motto “knowledge improves life”.

include the Royal Thai Armed Forces, and Bangkok Metropolitan Fire Brigade 3, as well as a
wide network of highly specialized trainers for Hostage Incident Management and First Aid.
Rapid Response
As security incidents and disasters emerge rapidly, UN organizations and (inter)national

their workplaces. At the end of training, each participant receives all powerpoints, videos,

While we are a local Thai NGO, the strength of an HDFF credential has been augmented by
the large number of participants from international organizations, such as UN agencies and
INGOs, and the array of international donors, such as the EU, British Embassy, and UNDP.
Our “Stay Safe Training (SST)”, attended by participants from across Asia and Africa, is also
certified by the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT). Upon successful completion of the

useful professional credential and resume-builder.

HDFF trainings are an excellent opportunity to meet and network with other professionals in
various sectors of the development field. Our workshops are long enough for participants to
build genuine rapport with one another, creating foundations for trusted contacts who can
share information with one another, broaden career opportunities, and establish friendships.
Most participants report that meeting new people is among the most enjoyable aspects of
our trainings. Also participants who successfully complete a “Stay Safe Training” will be
invited to join an online information sharing network connecting training alumni.
You will enjoy lower prices than other training providers
Many private organizations charge several thousands of dollars for the same types of
trainings offered by HDFF. In its status as a non-profit organization whose mission is address
the needs of communities and strengthen the capacities of people, HDFF keeps its course
fees moderate to make its trainings accessible to organizations of all levels.
