Travel Risk Management
All travel, regardless of destination, brings a certain level of inherent risk. To help mitigate risk for our global travelers, Brown University regularly monitors world health, safety and security events using a variety of assessment sources, including taking input from the U.S. Department of State (DOS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), International SOS, Brown faculty and staff regional experts, among other reputable oversight agencies.
As you prepare for Brown-related travel, learn how to register your travel plans and familiarize yourself with health and safety information, protocols for international travel, and other essential details by visiting the Travel Planning page on the Travel@Brown website.
