Summary

This news item from the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER) announces that CSER researchers have been appointed as contributors to the IPCC's Seventh Assessment Report (AR7). This represents CSER's involvement in shaping international climate science policy at the highest levels, potentially integrating existential and catastrophic risk perspectives into mainstream climate assessments.

Key Points

  • CSER researchers have been selected to contribute to the IPCC AR7, the next major international climate assessment cycle beginning around 2025.
  • This appointment signals recognition of existential risk research expertise within mainstream international scientific policy bodies.
  • CSER's involvement may help incorporate broader catastrophic and systemic risk framing into IPCC outputs.
  • The IPCC AR7 will inform global climate policy negotiations and national government responses for years to come.
  • This reflects a growing bridge between existential risk research communities and established intergovernmental scientific institutions.
