  • Employing a data-led approach to resilience

    Employing a data-led approach to resilience
    Dec 8 2022

    Does practice make perfect? Do countries become more resilient to disasters the more they experience them? Or does their resilience break down when disasters strike again and again?

    Today’s guest is Sarah Cumbers, Evidence and Insight Director at the Lloyds Register Foundation. She shares the latest data from the foundation’s World Risk Poll. The poll asked people around the globe about their perceptions on risk and safety with the aim of understanding where strengths lie and what can be improved. Your host is Annette Hertwig.

  • Human use of the ocean: Limit- and lawless?

    Human use of the ocean: Limit- and lawless?
    Nov 18 2022

    The seas are getting crowded. As commercial use of the ocean accelerates exponentially and climate change impacts worsen, marine ecosystems and coastal communities are feeling unprecedented pressures. The ocean has been a source of food since the dawn of time, it facilitates our modern communication, transports our merchandise and is often perceived as a lawless, new economic frontier.

    This episode's guest, Jean-Baptiste Jouffray, who is a researcher at the Stockholm Resilience Centre, expands on the new ocean reality. He proposes that the ocean may not be as lawless as we think and that we need to ramp up investment and stewardship of the vast waters that are giving us so much. Host for this episode is Annette Hertwig.

  • Facing a triple crisis: Food, climate and conflict

    Facing a triple crisis: Food, climate and conflict
    Nov 16 2022

    Food insecurity, climate change and conflict are placing considerable pressure on the global food system. Inequality, access to land, access to nutrient-rich foods, and the loss of local food cultures and diversity are realities further amplified in the new risk landscape. These challenges are also playing out differently depending on the region you inhabit. In other words, the global south and the global north are both feeling the pressure, however, in disparate ways.

    This episode's guests Cibele Queiroz and Albert Norström discuss the challenges our global food systems face and explore ways through which we can move towards more resilient, sustainable and just food systems. Albert Norström is a researcher at the Stockholm Resilience Centre and head of knowledge and evidence at the Global Resilience Partnership. Cibele Queiroz is a researcher at the Stockholm Resilience Centre and Global Resilience Partnership. Your host is Annette Hertwig.
