Risk governance is a research area that focuses on the processes and mechanisms through which organizations and societies anticipate, assess, and manage risks. This includes understanding how risk is perceived, communicated, and decision-making around risk is conducted. Risk governance involves a systematic approach to identifying, analyzing, and responding to risks in order to minimize their potential impact on an organization or society. This area of research also considers the role of institutions, regulations, and stakeholders in shaping risk management practices. Ultimately, risk governance aims to enhance risk resilience and improve the ability to adapt to unpredictable events.
