Public accountability
The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) publishes the records that let anyone check its work: decisions and who took them, interests that could affect them, what it published under what review, and how errors were corrected. No route needs membership, an account or payment. Part of About GCRI; the full section is Trust and accountability.

Public accountability on the record.

02Records
Four kinds of record, each open to examination.
Decisions
Decision records
Material decisions are recorded with their date, holder, scope and reasons. A rejected recommendation receives a reasoned disposition rather than disappearing.
Interests
Declared interests
Reviewers and role holders declare interests. A reviewer with a declared conflict does not sign the acceptance it concerns. See Independence and conflicts.
Publications
Publication records
Each release carries its sources, methods, evidence labels, review chain, funding disclosure and version history.
Corrections
Correction history
A correction creates a new recorded version, never a silent edit. See Corrections and concerns.
03Routes
Where to raise a concern.
| Route | Write to | Who handles it |
|---|---|---|
| Scientific correction or integrity concern | the integrity concern form | The responsible editor or source owner; open to anyone |
| Programme or decision complaint | the integrity concern form | Someone not responsible for the contested decision |
| Privacy and rights request | the privacy request form | The Interim Privacy Officer of GCRI Canada |
| Security report | the security report form | The security disclosure team |
| Safeguarding concern | the safeguarding report form | A restricted route, never handled in public forums or by a chatbot |
The acknowledgement gives a reference and names the next step. The Consortium is not an emergency service; in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services.

05Integrity
Rules that no funder can buy out.
- No support buys a finding, a ranking, an appointment, consent, procurement advantage or the suppression of a limitation.
- Findings are accepted on method by qualified, conflict-managed reviewers, not on who funded or hosted the work.
- Funding is disclosed with each publication, and sponsorship has no say in a test result.
- Missing data is shown as missing, never as zero, and every result carries an evidence label.
06Annual account
The year in one reviewed document.
Governance changes, delivery evidence, lessons and material changes are brought together in the institutional annual review once it is released. The other pillar institutions keep their own routes, for example the corrections and complaints route of The Global Risks Alliance (GRA).
07Questions
Questions and answers.
Do I need to be a member to raise a concern?
No. Every route is open to anyone, without membership, an account or payment.
What happens after I report an error?
The responsible editor or source owner reviews it. If the correction is accepted, it is published as a new recorded version with its history.
Is a complaint reviewed by the person I am complaining about?
No. A complaint about a decision is reviewed by someone not responsible for that decision.
