Publications
This is the catalogue of publications issued by The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI), through GCRI Canada or GCRI US. Each entry is listed once, at its canonical address, with its publisher, authors, date, version, review state, licence and correction history. Items enter the catalogue only after review and release; a planned or drafted report is never shown as released. The programme's governed series are described under the Nexus Reports programme, and every change is recorded under corrections and updates.

Items enter only after review and release, and a planned or drafted report is never shown as released.

What every entry states.
| Field | What it records |
|---|---|
| Publisher | The organization that issues the work, GCRI Canada or GCRI US, and any co-publisher on record |
| Authors and reviewers | Named authors, and the review roles that accepted the work, with declared conflicts managed |
| Version and date | The release date, the current version and links to superseded versions |
| Evidence and methods | Evidence labels, a methods page and the source and rights register |
| Licence | The licence for text, figures and data, described on rights and licences |
| Funding | Funding disclosures for the work |
Four families, one standard.
Every family follows the same review, attribution and correction rules, so a reader can compare a report, a paper and a brief on the same footing.

Terms used on this page.
Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Version of record | The fixed version of a work that a publisher formally declares published; later changes appear as dated corrections or new versions, never as silent edits, in the sense NISO's journal article versions recommendation uses. |
| Persistent identifier | A long-lasting reference to a digital object, person or organisation, such as a DOI, ORCID iD or ROR ID, that resolves even when locations change. |
| Correction | A published notice that amends an error in a work whose main findings stand. |
| Peer review | Evaluation of a work by independent experts in the field before publication. |
One canonical home for each work.
A publication has one canonical URL. Other GCRI pages, specialist platforms and partner institutions summarize and link to it rather than republishing it. When citing, use the canonical title, publisher, version and date shown in the record.
Publications of The Global Risks Forum and The Global Risks Alliance are catalogued by those institutions, for example GRA publications and professional briefs.
