What's a Riskathon?

A unique, week-long collaborative event where IR students and global experts come together to analyze and predict the most critical risks facing our world in the coming year.

Now in its 9th year, this collaboration between Wikistrat, a global crowdsourced consultancy, and NYU's Political Risks and Prediction course examined potential risks to global stability across two critical time horizons: 2025 and 2030.

Testimonials

“I’ve been connected to Wikistrat since 2012. I have seen firsthand how hardworking, forward-thinking, and kind the core team is. This is why it was an easy decision to collaborate with Wikistrat on several crowdsourced projects with my NYU grad students in my risk and prediction course.

This project has been an incredible opportunity for students to apply the risk analysis skills they cultivate in the classroom in a practical, real-world format through the Wikistrat platform—incredible value added to their education.”
