“As part of this wider effort on risk communication, we have developed “serious games” to communicate risk and have people experience what it means to make decisions in times of uncertainty – decisions on hazard, risk reduction, etc. The development of tools and games in that front has helped the humanitarian sector and beyond to have proper conversations with at-risk communities.”
“We must understand how the levels of disproportionality increase when we see these compounding hazards lead to new types of events that perhaps some communities have not seen before.”
“We are underscoring the importance of having data, of high-quality science, and the governance structures in place, but also being able to do something about it. We could have the best science and rules, but the bottom line is: to what extent can we prioritize and de-prioritize certain communities and how do these activities lead to lower impacts for the traditionally underserved populations and suffering the greatest socioeconomic impact.”
