About Societies at Risk and ANTICIPATE
Societies at Risk at Uppsala University and ANTICIPATE at Peace Research Institute Oslo are multi-disciplinary research programs directed by Professor Håvard Hegre. They bring together scholars from public health research, economics, political science, peace and conflict research, and natural disaster science to study the impacts of armed conflict on human development.
Seeking to provide a comprehensive forward-looking assessment that allows for well-informed decision-making and anticipatory action, the two programs will focus on six interlinked systems:
1. Economy
2. Health
3. Social-psychology,
4. Water availability
5. Forced displacement
6. Political institutions.
The programs will in close collaboration with each other pool the insights of specialists from Uppsala University, Peace Research Institute Oslo, Karolinska Institutet (KI), V-Dem at University of Gothenburg, the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED), Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), International Security and Development Center (ISDC), and University of Pittsburgh.
