• The latest edition of the World Economic Forum's Global Risks Report is out on 11 January 2022.
  • Watch the livestreamed briefing from this page on 11 January 2022 at 10:00 CET.

The 17th edition of the Global Risks Report identifies tensions that will result from a divergent recovery. Rapidly and slowly recovering countries alike will need to navigate economic and societal gaps to restore social cohesion, boost employment and thrive.

The pandemic's cascading impacts are impeding the visibility of emerging challenges, including climate transition disorder, increased cyber vulnerabilities, greater barriers to international mobility, and crowding and competition in space. Global divisions risk deepening at a time when societies and the international community urgently need to collaborate to check COVID-19 and heal its scars.

In partnership with Marsh McLennan, SK Group and Zurich Insurance Group.
