Risk management in expeditions

Risk management in expeditions involves identifying potential dangers—such as weather, terrain, or health issues—and planning ways to prevent or minimize their impact. It includes assessing the likelihood and severity of risks, implementing safety measures, and preparing response plans. The goal is to protect the expedition team and ensure a successful outcome by proactively managing uncertainties. Effective risk management balances safety with the expedition's objectives, ensuring participants are informed, equipped, and ready to handle unexpected situations.
