We can’t prevent the emergency, BUT we can control effective response and the aftercare that victims receive, thus ensuring that, as far as possible, they leave the country knowing they were cared for.
SATSA’s approach to Safety and Security is focused on a three-point plan and is aligned with existing National and Provincial strategies.

TBSCA Safety & Security Consultant
André was invited to be a member of the Safety & Security committee which was set up under instruction of the Minister of Tourism so that private sector specialists may advise and assist in the implement of the 2018 National Tourism Safety Strategy.
Together with colleagues Andre has spearheaded the scaled distribution of the SECURA Traveller Emergency App, the establishment of the SECURA Traveller Operations Centre and the ongoing Traveller Aftercare support service so critical for inbound travellers.
SECURA Traveller Operations Centre (STOC)
With the financial support of the TBSCA, we established a 24/7/365 Operations Desk that coordinates immediate emergency response and aftercare services for Travellers in South Africa.
The aim is to build capacity within STOC and the tourism stakeholders to ensure all traveller related incidents are managed in a way that provides professional response and empathetic aftercare support.
