This JRC report addresses the multi-faceted nature of cross-border and emerging risks in Europe, whilst taking stock of previous JRC flagship reports on understanding risks (Science for Disaster Risk Management Book Series and the Recommendations for National Risk Assessment Versions 0 and 1). The report collects contributions from expert teams across eight directorates and external partners, and analyses the current landscape of risks characterised by their potential for widespread impact across the continent, necessitating a coordinated European response. It leverages historical data and recent scientific advances that address both cross-border risks such as natural disasters and anthropogenic crises, and emerging risks that include technological and socio-economic challenges.
