Workshop facilitation for risk framing

Workshop facilitation for risk framing is one of the methods used by Risk Sciences International to better understand risk.

Broadly

Workshops for risk framing enable stakeholders and experts to collaboratively define the scope, scale, and perspective of a risk issue before analysis begins. These sessions ensure the right questions are asked, clarify what constitutes harm or benefit, and align expectations. They are particularly useful for complex, interdisciplinary, or value-laden risks. Effective facilitation ensures diverse inputs and keeps sessions outcome-oriented.

More specifically

RSI facilitates risk framing workshops to help clients sharpen assessment objectives and anticipate stakeholder concerns. Its moderators use scenario prompts, structured dialogue, and evidence mapping to guide participants toward a shared framing. RSI ensures that outcomes are documented and operationalized in subsequent analytical or policy work.
