Testimonials.
As complex crises and risks intensify, the value of a catalytic initiative like ASRA has only become clearer. We are proud to host this crucial network as a contribution to better decision-making about our greatest collective challenges.
Elizabeth Cousens
President and CEO, UN Foundation
Public and private decision-makers are looking for practical tools they can use to effectively anticipate and respond to the increasingly dynamic risks we all face today. I’m delighted to be part of ASRA’s Steering Committee, helping advance this important agenda.
Michael Lesnick
Senior Fellow, Meridian Institute
ASRA is making crucial advances in a time of worsening systemic crises, and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.
Michael Lawrence
Polycrisis Fellow, Cascade Institute
The health of our planet and all living beings is deeply interdependent. The SDGs reflect this, with each goal intertwined and feedback loops pervasive. Comprehensive risk assessment that addresses connections is not just critical; it's urgent for sustainable development.
