Description
Hosted by Cambridge Industrial Innovation Policy, University of Cambridge, the UNIDO Resident Coordination Office in Jakarta, and the Lloyd’s Register Foundation, the event will examine insights from the World Risk Poll - a global study of public perceptions and experiences of risk, conducted in over 140 countries.
The workshop will feature the presentation of four new policy briefs, addressing critical areas of policymaking:
- Artificial Intelligence Policy
- Digital Trade Policy
- Industrial Policy
- Labour Policy
Each brief integrates World Risk Poll insights with complimentary data sources and policy reviews to highlight how targeted policy interventions can tackle critical safety challenges in Southeast Asia.
Regional policymakers, industry leaders and academics will engage in a series of panel discussions to reflect on the key findings, policy recommendations, and real-world implications of each brief.
Attendees will gain insights into how people across Southeast Asia perceive risk in their daily lives, as well as how this knowledge can shape smarter, more responsive policies.
This workshop is part of the project “Policy Making for a More Resilient World: Leveraging the World Risk Poll for More Effective Digital, Labour, and Industrial Policies.”
