Nexus Reports programme
Nexus Reports is one governed publication programme: quarterly country editions, an annual flagship and specialist series across global, regional, sector, technology and programme subjects. The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) is the canonical publication owner, through the Nexus Reports platform. This page explains the series, the review that precedes release and how issues are linked once approved. A planned report is never shown as released, and issue links appear only after release. It is part of publications.

| Edition | Question | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Q1 · State and Agenda | What matters this year, and what is the starting position? | Observed baseline stays distinct from planned work |
| Q2 · Evidence and Build | What new evidence and capability have been developed? | A configured capability is not a validated result |
| Q3 · Stress Test and Readiness | What do scenarios and tests reveal? | Simulated loss or performance is not observed impact |
| Q4 · Annual Synthesis and Renewal | What did the year establish, and what changes next? | Release follows review, not event publicity deadlines |

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. |
| Editorial independence | The condition in which editors decide what is published on the validity and relevance of the work, free from interference by owners, funders or sponsors, as ICMJE and COPE guidance describe it. |
| Living report | A report updated in versions as evidence changes, with each version kept and dated. |
| Grey literature | Material produced outside commercial and academic publishing, such as reports, filings and working papers. |
One canonical owner, linked from everywhere.
GCRI is the canonical publisher. Platforms and the other pillar institutions link to issues rather than republishing them; The Global Risks Forum (GRF) explains its relationship at reports and publications relationship. Changes are recorded under corrections and updates.
