Institute

European Risk Policy Institute

The European Risk Policy Institute (ERPI) focuses on anticipatory governance, systemic resilience and better decision-making under conditions of interdependence, disruption and uncertainty.

Purpose

From vulnerability to strategic judgement

The European Risk Policy Institute was established in 2015 as the first affiliated Risk Policy Institute within the Global Risk Policy Network, created and convened by the Australian Risk Policy Institute. ERPI applies Strategic Risk Policy® in European and international decision environments and develops ERPI frameworks for contemporary systemic-risk conditions.

The Institute works where conventional risk categories increasingly overlap: climate and infrastructure, geopolitical and geoeconomic disruption, technology and artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, governance, standards and assurance, institutional resilience and strategic leadership. Its purpose is to improve the quality of judgement before vulnerabilities mature into realised risks or crises.

How ERPI works

Four mutually reinforcing activities

Research & Policy

Develops evidence, frameworks and policy analysis for complex and systemic risk.

Strategic Intelligence

Converts evidence, monitoring and structured foresight into decision-relevant assessment.

Training & Executive Development

Builds professional and executive capability through training programmes, Master Classes, modular programmes and tailored institutional development.

Programmes & Initiatives

Applies ERPI research and capability to defined strategic, governance and resilience challenges, including persistent monitoring, registers and indices where appropriate.

Network

Intellectual lineage, distinct institutional identity

Australian Risk Policy Institute (ARPI®)

ARPI designed and introduced Strategic Risk Policy® and created and convenes the Global Risk Policy Network.

Global Risk Policy Network (GRPN)

ERPI was established within the GRPN as its first affiliated Risk Policy Institute. The relationship provides an intellectual and network lineage while ERPI maintains its distinct European institutional identity and work programme.

Centre for Advanced Resilience and Risk Policy Studies (CARRPS™)

CARRPS is an advanced resilience and risk-policy research structure within the wider ARPI/GRPN ecosystem. Current ARPI material identifies ERPI Chairman Ivan Savov as Director of CARRPS and Simon Lee as Deputy Director.

Governance

Claims are controlled, not inherited

ERPI distinguishes between public institutional material, controlled professional work and internal or restricted analysis. Institutional claims, partnerships, programme status, awards, qualification language and historical material are not carried forward merely because they appeared on a legacy website or document. Public content is subject to source review, classification and explicit publication authority.

Only material approved for public release enters the production publishing workflow.
