Risk RED, is U.S.-based non-governmental organisation, that has long championed the right of children to safer schools worldwide

Risk RED members were instrumental in the development of the Comprehensive School Safety Framework, recently adopted as the foundation for launching the Worldwide Initiative for School Safety at the World Conference on Disaster Reduction. In 2015 Risk RED worked with Save the Children, The World Bank’s Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery, UNESCO, and Arup International Development to research and convened global experts in safer community-based school construction.

We are a member of the Global Alliance for Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience in the Education Sector, and works collaboratively with global stakeholders in risk reduction education, including UNESCO, UNICEF, UNISDR, Save the Children, The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Nepal's National Society for Earthquake Technology, and others. Risk RED also has both historic and current links to other non-profits working on safer construction. Its work supports the Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction and Resilience in the Education Sector.
