Goals

• Pool knowledge about new research and initiatives, particularly those proving successful in creating better risk literacy and understanding and reducing harms.

• Create new tools and techniques for improved and accessible risk management.

• Develop fresh and practically usable guidance for policymakers, regulators and opinion- leaders on the presentation of facts and how to communicate their assessment of risk and their risk management decisions.

• Create a safe space. Risk discussion has become politicised and associated only with different interests and experiences, making it difficult to discuss in a dispassionate and mutually trustful way. So, an ancillary goal of the project is to create a safe space in which issues and ideas can be discussed in their own terms, in a trustworthy manner to pursue the goal of a better risk world for all.
