EFFECTIVE RISK COMMUNICATION COURSE FOR PROMISING LEADERS OF THE FUTURE

From natural disasters to man-made hazards the word ‘’Risk’’ evokes a range of public reactions, from the strong to the unconcerned. Professionals around the world face daily challenges in communicating effectively so that business communities, government officials, regulatory agencies, and the general public can make practical, timely decisions about health and well-being as well as the sustainability of their activities. The course Effective Risk Communication will address «real life» pressures, which have the potential to disrupt lives and the economy as well as damaging trust and reputation. It will in particular investigate the constraints on the public, private and not for profit sectors resulting from political pressure, scientific uncertainty, industry pressure and the views of other stakeholders such as consumerists.

Effective Risk Communication develops the capacity of participants to improve messaging and delivery in difficult or uncertain circumstances. Improved communication helps key stakeholders and the general public makes better decisions, reduce anxiety, and improve trust in an organization. Through case studies, lectures, and an interactive curriculum, participants will practice developing and delivering effective communications, acting as the key media liaison, and filling a central role in crafting organizational policies and procedures which are responsive to public concerns.
