We are excited to announce that a new course, Sustainable and Resilient Enterprises (SURE), is now available on Jumu in English and French!

This course seeks to strengthen the capacities of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to prepare, respond, and adapt to the impact of hazards such as disasters, conflict, pandemics and others. SMEs will develop resilience strategies that are tailor-made to their unique business profile and risk exposure.

With its focus on business resilience, the SURE methodology goes a step beyond classical business continuity planning and introduces aspects of business adaptation, digital transformation and staff development to help SMEs become agile, shore up vulnerabilities and build the necessary human elements that are key to business resilience.

The target end-users of the this course are SMEs with more than two years of operation and established management capacities. SURE targets both individual business owners and management teams.

The course consists of five modules:

• Staff engagement
• Risk sharing approaches
• Continuous improvement
• Digital transformation
• Introduction to risk-sharing partnerships
