Publish in Reports

How Labs contributes to the Reports series. Canonical editions are published on Reports.

01Six pillars

Reports among the six pillars.

Where all outputs are published, in all formats, across its five sites, each with sources, limits and corrections. It is led by the Nexus Consortium; its home is therisk.global/nexus-reports.

and 12 more

F01 to F14 are the recorded handoffs of the programme year, each with the artefact that moves and its phase; R1, R2, R3 and R4 carry work around the ring. A loop counts when every pillar on it is selected. Every pillar is led by the Nexus Consortium.
  1. LabsWhere questions become experiments and prototypes: new methods, data and tools are tried in the open, with their limits on record, before the Foundry builds them, under the Nexus Consortium.Labs in LabsLabs
  2. FoundryWhere methods, data and models become reproducible builds, each run with its inputs, version and limits on record.Labs in FoundryFoundry
  3. UniverseWhere a build is tested under controlled conditions with independent evaluators, so a method's skill is measured, not assumed.Labs in Universeuniverse.nexus
  4. Nexus StandardsWhere methods, identifiers and data schemas are codified in the open and corrected when a test finds a fault.Data and Evidence in Standardsnexustandards.com
  5. ReportsWhere findings are published with their method, uncertainty and evidence class, and corrected as new versions.Labs in ReportsReports
  6. Risk AcademyWhere methods and systems are taught on real data and real places, by working the case, on Risk Academy.Faculty of Risk Science and Methods in Academyrisksacademy.com

Reports in every area of the work

AreaReports
LeadershipSeries editors lead each edition under the series method; no funder, sponsor or member can buy or block a finding.
StrategyEach country programme agrees the scope of its profile before Q1, and nothing outside that scope is published.
CadenceQuarterly: Q1 State and Agenda, Q2 Evidence and Build, Q3 Stress Test and Readiness, and the Q4 Annual Synthesis as the flagship; an edition is published after review, not to a calendar.
OwnershipOwns editions and their evidence cutoff, country and regional profiles, technology stream briefs and the correction history.
ProcessContribution, editorial review, publication with version history, then challenge and correction as a new version.
DevelopmentDevelops country profiles each quarter, regional profiles twice a year and one exponential technology stream at a time.
SimulationsPublishes scenario findings labelled as modelled, with their uncertainty.
ReportingPublishes every output in every format across its five sites, each edition with sources, limits and corrections.
GovernancePublication is not authority: an edition is never a government risk register or a sovereign rating, and countries are never ranked.
Data and evidenceObserved, modelled and estimated evidence stay apart, and each edition states its evidence cutoff.
Finance and resourcingThe Finance and Insurance Readiness and the Portfolio and Readiness series make the evidence readable to finance.
Risk and assuranceEach finding states its method, uncertainty and limits, and reproducible concerns go to the owner of the finding.
ParticipationResearchers and practitioners contribute reviewed findings, and any reader can challenge a finding.
CommunicationEvery output is published in accessible formats with its version history.
LocalLocal evidence enters a profile only within the scope its country agreed.
NationalCountry profiles are updated each quarter, within the scope each country agreed before Q1.
RegionalRegional profiles are published twice a year, in Q2 and Q4, and never override a country's own findings.
PlanetaryThe Q4 Annual Synthesis reads country, regional and technology work together, without ranking countries.

How the process runs.

Process

Publish in Reports: Policy question to decision

A priority becomes a question, evidence, a decision case and a limited publication; the competent authority decides, never the programme.

  1. 01 Question

    1. 01A priority becomes a questionStep · Universe; national counterpartsA priority becomes a researchable question with stated criteria. National counterparts own the agenda, data and decisions.
    2. 03Scientific and stakeholder challengeStep · the Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI); the Global Risks Forum (GRF)Scientific and affected-stakeholder challenge informs mission selection and methods.
  2. 02 Evidence and options

    1. 04Assemble the evidenceStep · GCRIMethods, labelled data and uncertainty are assembled. Every finding carries one of nine evidence labels.
    2. 06Decision case with optionsRecord · The decision owner named in the caseA decision case binds owner, alternatives, evidence and deadline. It needs sensitivity and robustness.
  3. 03 Review and publication

    1. 07G6 · Publication authorisedGate · The Global Risks ForumGRF authorises publication of results that have passed scientific and editorial review. It cannot publish personal data.
    2. 08Publish with method, uncertainty and limitsRecord · ReportsFindings are published with their method, uncertainty and limits. An edition is published after review, not to a calendar.
  4. 04 Outside the programme

    1. 02Competent authority decidesDecision · The competent authorityThe authority or institution decides under its own rules. The authority decides; the programme informs.
    2. 05Action and implementation stay with the ownersActor · The relevant government, operator or licensed institutionDecisions and execution stay with the relevant government, operator or licensed institution. The programme records one only if shared.
  5. 05 Learning

    1. 09Corrections and lessons feed the next agendaStep · UniverseCorrections and lessons feed the next annual agenda. The findings of one year set the mandate of the next.

The Nexus cycle · Decision rights · The programme yearDesigned programme process, not a record of operation. No cycle has run and every programme is at service level R0. A gate is a programme decision, never a public-authority approval, certification or deployment authorisation.
