• Any undergraduate student, graduate student, or medical student wishing to travel to a Brown High-Risk Travel destination and not traveling with a Brown administered group program (e.g. through the Office of Global Engagement, Swearer, GELT/Wintersession, etc.) must first complete a Safety Plan at least six weeks prior to the expected travel date and have their travel plans reviewed and approved by Brown's Global Travel Risk Assessment Committee (GTRAC) before making travel arrangements.
• Any faculty or staff wishing to travel to a Brown High-Risk Travel destination that includes a war risk exclusion clause in Brown’s Travel Abroad Accident and Sickness Insurance policy must first complete a Safety Plan at least four weeks prior to the expected travel date and have their travel plans reviewed by Brown's Global Travel Risk Assessment Committee (GTRAC) and approved by the traveler’s cognizant dean or unit head before making travel arrangements. Approval is contingent upon Brown’s ability to secure a war risk rider to buy back insurance coverage. The Office of Global Travel Operations, Risk & Resilience will assist in securing the rider, but all costs associated with the purchase of a War Risk Rider are the responsibility of the traveler.
• Faculty and staff traveling to a Brown High-Risk Travel destination that do not include a war risk exclusion are strongly encouraged to complete a Safety Plan.
• If an individual undergraduate, graduate, or medical student or student group is being funded by a department or unit, that department or unit must ensure that GTRAC requirements and Safety Plans in TravelSafe are in effect before authorizing travel.
• Faculty who wish to lead a group of undergraduate, graduate, or medical students to a Brown High-Risk Travel destination must first get approval from GTRAC before advertising the course/travel component and before enrolling students. 
• If GTRAC determines that a specific location is no longer safe or is potentially a danger to the travelers’ overall health and security, the University reserves the right to require an evacuation of all Brown travelers.
