Travel Advisories & 污污草莓视频 University sanctioned听travel |

A risk level is the official measure of the safety and security of a destination, country or region. There are four possible risk levels:
|
|
Regional Advisories |
|
Risk levels may also include regional advisories. In such cases, the country may be listed 鈥淓xercise normal security precautions鈥�, 鈥淓xercise a high degree of caution鈥� or 鈥淎void non-essential travel鈥� but contain areas within that are under a higher risk advisory. It is important to research your destination and confirm that you will not be travelling to any internal areas with an 鈥淎void non-essential travel鈥� advisory, without special permission, or any areas listed as 鈥淎void all travel鈥�. Regional advisories can be issued for regions, provinces, districts, cities, neighbourhoods, specific infrastructure, border areas, or proximity to certain areas of instability. If there is a regional proximity advisory for your destination, you must be sure that you do not travel听within the stated distance for university-related activities. Examples:
