Notice Description

The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) is renowned for its research, postgraduate studies, and continuing education in public and global health. We have approximately 1,000 staff members and student travellers who travel to locations all over the world each year. Health and Safety is fundamental to LSHTM, as they ensure the safety and well-being of our Staff and Students. Our Health and Safety team needs to easily determine which country or region our staff and students are in in the event of an emergency.
