The Enterprise Risk Management policy and the Risk Committee Terms of Reference have been updated to remove references to the Security Management Group (SMG) and align with the updated Crisis Management Workflow for Headquarters. These updates reflect the dissolution of the Security Management Group (SMG), as its functions were duplicative of existing actors and mechanisms, including the Security Office (SO), the Crisis Operations Group (COG), and the Senior Emergency Policy Team (SEPT). In crisis situations at Headquarters in New York, UNDP engages directly with UN system-wide crisis management structures through established roles, with the SO Director participating in the COG and senior UNDP leadership representing the organization at the SEPT.
