An RSI Communicating Risk method
Transparency systems for risk interpretation
Transparency systems for risk interpretation is one of the methods used by Risk Sciences International to better communicate risk.
Broadly
Transparency systems for risk interpretation are frameworks or tools that show how risk conclusions are reached, what data was used, and where uncertainties lie. They include annotated datasets, decision pathways, explanatory notes, and traceable documentation. Transparency enhances trust, accountability, and the legitimacy of risk communication, but it must be managed to avoid information overload.
More specifically
RSI designs transparency systems that make risk interpretations understandable and verifiable by regulators, stakeholders, and the public. These systems include audit trails for decisions, visual breakdowns of evidence integration, and clear uncertainty communication. RSI ensures transparency without sacrificing clarity or usability, making complex assessments open to public scrutiny and stakeholder input.
