GCR, such as policy levers and instruments, engagement and influence, agenda-setting, institutions, decision-making, and framing and messaging. Understanding how GCR relates to strategic policy making will help inform how we should engage policy and help prioritize our policy efforts.<br \/><br \/><\/li><li><strong>Overarching policy:<\/strong> Overarching policy research to approaches for reducing GCR address the entire set of GCR. This type of policy sits above GCR, providing top-down support or guidance to identifying, managing, or reducing specific threats that have potential global catastrophic or existential consequences. Governments can take seven types of overarching policy for GCR: govern, understand, prevent, prepare, respond, communicate and collaborate.<br \/><br \/><\/li><li><strong>Cross-cutting policy:<\/strong> Certain policy issues can impact or shape global catastrophic risk. These issues \u2018cut across\u2019 GCR. In some cases, cross-cutting issues drive or exacerbate the threats, such as the negative impact of geopolitical competition. In other cases, cross-cutting issues could be impacted by the threats, such as the resilience of food systems. We use the following taxonomy of cross-cutting issues: geopolitics and strategic competition; politics and governance; economics and finance; natural resources and the environment; infrastructure and built environment; health and healthcare; knowledge and information; technology and innovation; and society and culture.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-235bf7c9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"235bf7c9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5328e106 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5328e106\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1278\" src=\"https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-6280\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/2design.co\/globals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/pexels-tomfisk-2739666-1536x1022.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5287c056 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5287c056\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n      <\/div> \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"#ue-tab2\" class=\"uc_ac_box elementor-repeater-item-b22b2fc \" style=\"background-color:;\">\n  <a href=\"javascript:void(0)\" class=\"uc-heading uc_trigger\" role=\"button\">\n    <span class=\"uc_dactive bbb ue_accordion_icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"87\" height=\"88\" viewBox=\"0 0 87 88\"><g id=\"Group_1193\" data-name=\"Group 1193\" transform=\"translate(-1671 -1925)\"><ellipse id=\"Ellipse_29\" data-name=\"Ellipse 29\" cx=\"43.5\" cy=\"44\" rx=\"43.5\" ry=\"44\" transform=\"translate(1671 1925)\" fill=\"#007ac2\"><\/ellipse><line id=\"Line_249\" data-name=\"Line 249\" x2=\"43.937\" transform=\"translate(1692.5 1969.5)\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"3\"><\/line><line id=\"Line_254\" data-name=\"Line 254\" x2=\"43.937\" transform=\"translate(1714.5 1947.5) rotate(90)\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"3\"><\/line><\/g><\/svg><\/span> \n    <span class=\"uc_active bbb ue_accordion_icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"87\" height=\"88\" viewBox=\"0 0 87 88\"><g id=\"Group_1192\" data-name=\"Group 1192\" transform=\"translate(-1671 -1925)\"><ellipse id=\"Ellipse_29\" data-name=\"Ellipse 29\" cx=\"43.5\" cy=\"44\" rx=\"43.5\" ry=\"44\" transform=\"translate(1671 1925)\" fill=\"#007ac2\"><\/ellipse><line id=\"Line_249\" data-name=\"Line 249\" x2=\"43.937\" transform=\"translate(1692.5 1969.5)\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"3\"><\/line><\/g><\/svg><\/span>\n    <div class=\"ue_heading_title\">Policy research<\/div>\n  <\/a>\n  \n  <div class=\"uc_content\" >\n        \n           \t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"page\" data-elementor-id=\"6018\" class=\"elementor elementor-6018\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-112df696 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"112df696\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-211f925e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"211f925e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ac6f8af elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6ac6f8af\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Policy team identifies key policy questions relating to GCR, conducts in-depth research on priority questions to form the foundation for rigorous policy analysis and development, and gains insights into the implications of GCR on policy and the potential policy ideas for reducing GCR.
