- Basic Threat
- Moderate Threat
- High Threat (could have some high or even extreme risks involved- Risk Tolerance)
- Extreme Threat (as a practice we don't send people there, case by case- personalized for that missionary)
NOTES:
Threat level goes with state department warning as a factor (is that more of checklist for travel?)
...
Are we adding Lebanon in the same category of China? 50 countries in high levels?
Comfort vs. Capacity? What the partner's capacity to support them?
Care and Strategy of Gospel: how do we adjust the strategy based on the risk of public gospel expression? more on the missionary strategy side
Evaluate team- missionary strategy places people in the risk factor. where they are going but also what are the planning to do? That matters b/c it changes the risk levels.
Define the threat levels:
Threshold-which of these risk tolerances pushes you into the risk level: all of them, one of them, etc.
- Basic: Any moderate risk factors limited or temporary. Free movement, free access to basic goods, free expression of ministry/reason in the country, stable government, stable economy. Easy entry requirements for all Americans (ex. Canada)
- Medium: Moderate: Several moderate risk factors and/or a high risk factor are at play. Access to goods could be impeded, public expressions limited or who they are impeded, American doing gospel- several risk factors with varying frequency. Not as easy entry requirements (longevity for visas). Not as easy for requirements to be an American missionary.
- High: multiple extreme High risks and Extreme risk factors likely or imminent. imminent and or ongoing
- Extreme: as Several extreme risk factors under the extreme category. As a practice we don't go- too many risks.
