@DeBrauwerM @ConversationEDU Congrats @DeBrauwerM, nice work getting awareness of valuable science out there! 🙂

#Globalpandemicpreparedness can be assessed - not merely as the sum of #nationalpreparedness, but through a set of robust #indicators, for example applicable for #OneHealth

📣Opportunity to learn more about @TheGPMB work this Wednesday at @WHO #EPIWIN webinar

"If we look at these tipping points, continuing CO2 emissions is connected to driving up risk in many different areas, so addressing this will logically reduce our risk in many different areas."

A nice conversation with @NickGBreeze for the @ClimateGENN podcast around the new #InterconnectedRisks report. We need to redesign our way of thinking if we want a less risky future. 🌍

Dr Jack O'Connor from #UN University Lead Author of the Interconnected Disaster Risks Report #podcast https://t.co/FCh7vSq2zL hosted by Nick Breeze #riskreport #tippingpoints #risk #droughts #floods #waterrisk #riskassessment #disasterisk #securityimpacts #greenpolitics #highrisk

[Jack O'Connor @DrJackOConnor]

Great coverage @ActisAndres, the increasingly catastrophic damage due to events like Hurricane Otis is threatening the persistence of safety nets when we need them the most, and we need to reduce the level of risk we are facing worldwide right now. #InterconnectedRisks 🌍

[Andrés Actis @ActisAndres]

El 80% de los hoteles de Acapulco sufrieron daños por el paso del huracán Otis. Las pólizas están desembolsando cifra récord por la crisis climática.

El "futuro no asegurable" es un punto de inflexión de riesgo para el sistema del que se habla muy poco.

[Jack O'Connor @DrJackOConnor]

@ClimateGENN Thanks to @NickGBreeze for having this conversation on #InterconnectedRisks for the @ClimateGENN podcast. These are the kinds of conversations we need to be having, and making moves to change the way we do things. 🌍

The concept of risk tipping points is in line with our warnings that countries are accumulating #InterconnectedRisks, beyond their ability to adapt. We call on countries to invest in solutions that prevent these risks from triggering disasters. @‌UNUEHS ➡️https://t.co/MBE68F7dBn

[Jack O'Connor @DrJackOConnor]

Our 3rd Interconnected Disaster Risk report launches today from @UNUEHS on #RiskTippingPoints. We need to transform for a better future. Let us know what you think! 🌏🔮☔
