2 Why do we need Risk Communications? Lisbon, 19 September
3 Risk Communications: overall aim Provide people with information about risk so that they can make informed decisions about whether different potential hazards are acceptable, or whether to take a particular course of action to mitigate risk. Lisbon, 19 September
4 Risk Communications: a continuum Risk Analysis Framework Risk Assessment *Science based Risk Management *Policy based Risk Communication *Interactive exchange of information and opinions concerning risks Source: WHO/FAO 1997 Lisbon, 19 September
5 What does the public see as a risk? The risks that kill you are not necessarily the risks that anger and frighten you. Peter M. Sandman Lisbon, 19 September
6 Different risk approaches EXPERTS PUBLIC - Rely on risk assessment (counting & calculation) - Objective and general - Analytical argumentation - Balance risk against benefits - Rely on perception of risks (good or bad feelings) - Asks: "What does it mean for me?" - Wants answers on concerns - Balances risk against dread and outrage Lisbon, 19 September
