Hazard types, and where they reach.

The fourteen NHS-1 hazard domains of the Global Risks Index, read against the six sectors, the editions and the findings that name them; then the eighteen hazard families of Nexus Standards.

A dot means no hazard word reads that domain yet (see Data gaps); a zero means the words are read and no finding of that sector names them. Counts are coverage of the editions’ text, never exposure.

01 · Domains

Fourteen domains, one card each.

Open a card for the sectors its series co-read, the editions whose series name it and the findings that name it.

02 · By country

The hazards each country edition reads.

For each country and union edition: its risk objects and its findings read under four NHS-1 domains by their hazard words. A count is coverage of the edition’s text, never exposure.

03 · Families

Eighteen hazard families of Nexus Standards.

A flat list, with no types beneath it in this repository. Each family names the risk standards it couples with.
