Unveiling Global Risks: Insights from the Global Risks 2025 Report

The Global Risks Report 2025, based on the Global Risks Perception Survey 2024-2025 (GRPS), is produced by the World Economic Forum with contributions from Marsh McLennan and Zurich Insurance Group. 

It incorporates insights from over 900 global experts surveyed in September and October 2024, as well as input from 59 World Economic Forum colleagues and 96 experts across academia, business, government, and civil society, gathered through interviews, workshops, and community meetings held from April to November 2024.

The report stresses rising global challenges, such as economic instability, climate change, and geopolitical tensions. It warns of increasing market volatility, climate disasters, and deepening societal divisions fueled by misinformation and inequality. Figures are also presented that cover short- and long-term global risk interconnections.

It proposes an approach for governance, which could be both adaptive and collaborative, geared towards addressing these interconnected risks. Hence, this report emphasizes the urgency of coordinated global action to address escalating challenges. As key recommendations, the report highlights the need for stronger multilateral efforts to ease geopolitical tensions and promote stability, greater investments in sustainable infrastructure and policies to enhance climate resilience, and proactive measures to combat misinformation and rebuild trust in societies. Additionally, it stresses the importance of robust governance to manage emerging technological risks and the need for strategies that support economic stability, helping countries navigate financial uncertainties and drive inclusive growth.

Data Quality in Emergencies: Field-Level Challenges and Mitigation Strategies

Image
In emergency response, the quality of our data and reporting plays a critical role in how we plan, allocate resources, and respond to people in urgent need. High-quality data helps ensure our actions are informed, timely, and equitable. However, when data collection methodologies are weak or inconsistent, the consequences can be significant: - Data may not be valid, leading to unreliable conclusions. - Assessments may be inaccurate or unnecessarily repeated. - Accessible areas are often oversampled, while harder-to-reach communities are left out. - Vulnerable groups risk being excluded. - Programs may rely on assumptions rather than actual evidence. To support field teams and strengthen MEARL practices in these complex environments, I developed a contextualized resource that outlines key challenges and practical mitigation strategies for rapid needs assessments in conflict-affected emergencies. While grounded in the Myanmar context, I believe the insights are relevant across many hum...
