The Global Catastrophic Risk Institute (GCRI) experienced a year of transition and learning in 2023, marked by the loss of two team members and a renewed focus on organizational direction.
In 2023, GCRI aimed to contribute more actively to public conversations about global catastrophic risk, striving for constructive and sustainable engagement.
Research accomplishments in 2023 included the publication of two papers: one on all-hazards policy for global catastrophic risk and another on the public health implications of nuclear winter.
Outreach efforts involved engagement with policymakers, commentary articles, and presentations to the public on urban design and climate change.
GCRI's community support initiatives included advising programs, fellowship collaborations, and statements promoting demographic diversity and addressing contentious issues within the field.
Looking ahead to 2024, GCRI plans to prioritize public outreach and supporting a more global field of global catastrophic risk through research, community support, and organization development activities.
