UR22 Highlights
The Understanding Risk Global Forum (UR22) was a hybrid event that took place from 28 December to 2 December in Florianopolis, Brazil, and online. UR22 Satellite events also happened in person in London (UK), Wellington (New Zealand), Niamey (Niger) and Vancouver (Canada) joining the global streaming. In the main hub in Florianopolis, we not only rode the (actual) waves of risk due to heavy rain, but we got flooded by knowledge, innovation, and, most importantly, connections. That is UR’s superpower: to foster inspiration through creative ideas and stimulate non-traditional partnerships. Thanks to all the participants, sponsors, and partners who helped us overcome the challenges and make this event a success.
