How it arises?

  • The project is the product of a process of reflection-action and the experience lived during the Covid-19 pandemic.
  • Although it arises during the pandemic, its contribution is not limited to public health and seeks to be useful for a variety of public concerns and in different policy areas.
  • The pandemic has reminded us of the central relevance of considering the political dimension of perceptions of risk and its role in responses and decisions.
  • The gap between risk perception studies and the development of skills and tools for policy action.
  • Therefore, the need to develop analysis and strategy design skills, to have practical tools that can be applicable to real problems and situations, sensitive to diverse and usually complex contexts.
