Early signals occur everywhere in society
We collectively have 100+ years of research experience into early warning signals. We have identified dozens of signals, characterised them, and presented them to our peers. Here we share our stories, talking about the characteristics of early signals in our respective domains. Eventually we hope to anticipate big disruptive events, characterise risk profiles and mitigate negative impact on society - or foster positive effects.
