An article by Dr Gianluca Pescaroli, Scientific Lead of the AGILE project and Professor at UCL Risk & Disaster Reduction (RDR), has been published in the Crisis Response Journal. Titled “HILP events, risk agnosticism, and stress-testing resilience”, the article explores the challenges posed by High Impact Low Probability (HILP) events and the limitations of traditional risk assessment approaches.

The article discusses the concept of risk agnosticism and the importance of stress-testing systems for resilience against unexpected and cascading disruptions. These perspectives closely align with AGILE’s focus on improving preparedness, governance, and resilience in the face of complex and uncertain risks.
