Setting the standard in safety
MICATZ has a commitment to safety. The safety and well being of every participant and leader takes top priority in our planning and operation of our programs internationally. Thousands of young adults from around the world participate in MICATZ programs each year, and MICATZ has experience in responding to incidents abroad. Be assured MICATZ will not conduct a program we believe will jeopardize the safety of any person.

Maasai Challenge executive managers regularly assess international affairs that may impact our program. MICATZ checks nationally recognized websites to help identify travel warnings. While safety cannot be guaranteed at home or in any country, MICATZ takes every measure possible through selective hiring and proper training of MICATZ field staff, in-country offices, 24-hour support team, and promoting thorough preparation before departure to a host country.

Every expedition offers its share of challenge and adventure – that is how students learn new skills and reach their full potential, learning about safety, both their own and others, is a crucial life lesson too. We work hard to keep the balance right between maximum challenge and minimal risk. The priority we place on safety and our world-class systems mean students and teachers can look forward to a rewarding, well-managed experience.

When it comes to training, safety, and back-up we like to set the standard in the outdoor industry. Our extensive training prepares Maasai Challenge staff for every eventuality. It also enables us to provide the highest level of operational support possible and helps to continually review and improve our established procedures.

Our staffs

MICATZ requires all field staff to be certified in first aid. Our field staff (project leaders and tour leaders) guides our participant groups on their volunteer projects and outdoor adventure tours with safety at the forefront.

MICATZ staffs are well trained and experienced in leading groups. Staff training is thorough and focuses on the need for staff to be proactive to prevent accidents and incidents. Ultimately, participants over the age of 18+ are responsible for their own behavior and actions. However, Maasai Challenge staffs emphasize to all participants they each must be safety-consciousness at all times.

Our in-country offices

MICATZ has established a Partnership office with its Partners in each of the countries where we operate volunteer and adventure travel programs. In each country we have a country coordinator who assesses the local conditions, directs the program, and oversees MICATZ field staff. In the unlikely event of an incident abroad our country coordinator will contact and coordinate with MICATZ head office (who handles the preparation of each participant prior to their departure).

Important communication between family and friends is best achieved by calling the MICATZ head office which then relays information to the country coordinator in the participant host country.

MICATZ has a global team of staff who cooperates to ensure the well-being of all participants and leaders, and who are available 24 hours a day in the event of an emergency.
