🔹 Effective #RiskCommunication takes courage – to open up the risk analysis process to stakeholders in a meaningful and consistent way.

After years of working independently in #RiskCommunication, I know the value of focus & flexibility. But in emergencies, collaboration isn’t optional—it’s essential.
Proud to join a network of senior experts ready to act when it matters most.

4/ Would love to see more tools from governments/local administrations with this level of clarity that allows residents to easily understand the flood risks affecting their own neighbourhoods. Good flood risk communication shouldn't require an engineering degree! #GreySky #RiskCommunication

I haven't worked on environmental economics in about 20 years - but the opaque language of 'implicit subsidy' (which is actually - its actually 'estimated damage') seems stuck in the past. A #riskcommunication person may be needed to be change this language into something that engages people?

Nice example for the importance of #Accessibility in #RiskCommunication. Wondering if there are more? Is there something for #FloodRisks as well?
If you feel earthquake shaking or receive an earthquake alert you should drop down to the ground, take cover under a sturdy object, and hold on until all the shaking has stopped. www.shakeout.org/california/d...
