2019 was a bad year for aid worker security with 483 individuals injured in 277 incidents around the world according to the Aid Worker Security Database. Sadly, 125 aid workers died throughout the year while 124 were kidnapped. As grim as the toll was last year, it still represents a slight decline on the total number of air workers killed in 2019 when 131 lost their lives.
