Recommendation

The world is certainly fraught with risk – humanity faces the potential for massive terrorist attacks, the use of weapons of mass destruction, climate change fallout and data manipulation, to name a few. These risks are multiplying in a global environment in which populism is on the rise, the democratic process is coming under siege, and technological change is pushing new ways to work and live.
