Welcome to the Risk Management Blog!

My name is Amer Hamad Issa Abukhalaf, and I am a researcher in risk management and safety design. I have created this multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, scholarly blog to provide an open forum for all those who are interested in risk management. Risk management is broadly defined to include risk assessment, risk characterization, risk communication, risk analysis, and policy relating to risk, in the context of risks of concern to individuals, to public- and private-sector organizations, and to society at a local, regional, national, or global level. The topics covered in this blog include Human health and safety risks, Safety design, Natural hazards, Disasters, Ecological risks, Risk communication, Risk characterization, Risk perception and acceptability, Risk management and decision-making, Laws and regulatory policy.
