The systemic risk taxonomy
Hazard domains, contexts, risk classes, indicator domains, risk components, the risk chain, method fabrics, the twenty systems, platforms, domain packs and programme pillars, each node linked to the standards that govern it.
hazard domains
| Node | Definition | ستاندارد |
|---|---|---|
کەشوهەوا و ئاووهەواatmo |
Hazards that live in the air column: storms, winds, precipitation extremes, thermal extremes, airborne particles and large-scale circulation anomalies. | |
سیستەمەکانی ئاوwater |
Hazards of fresh and salt water: floods, water deficit, sea-level and wave hazards, ocean-state extremes and water-quality degradation. | |
سەهۆڵ و بەفرcryo |
Hazards of the frozen Earth: snowpack and avalanche, glacier and permafrost change, floating ice. | |
بەشی ڕەقی زەویgeo |
Hazards of the crust and ground: fault shaking, eruptions, slope failure, ground deformation and surface erosion. | |
بۆشایی و نزیک زەویspace |
Hazards that arrive from or act in space: solar-terrestrial storms, impacts and orbital debris. | |
زەوی و ژینگەeco |
Hazards of the living land and sea surface: vegetation fire, forest stress, land degradation, biodiversity loss and climate-state shifts. | |
سنوورەکانی گۆی زەوی و خاڵی پێچەوانەبوونی سیستەمی زەویplanet |
Hazards of the Earth system as a whole: transgression of the boundaries that keep the planet in a stable state, tipping of large climate, ice, ocean and biome components, carbon-cycle feedbacks, and rare deep-time and cosmic catastrophes. | |
پیسبوون و ماددە مەترسیدارەکانpoll |
Harmful substances in air, water, soil and food, toxic releases, ionising radiation and waste-containment failures. | |
تەندروستی و ئاسایشی زیندەییhealth |
Disease and biological harm to people, animals and plants, grouped by transmission route, plus systemic biological risks, chronic and mental-health burdens, drug resistance and the failure of health systems. | |
سیستەمە بنیادنراوەکانinfra |
Failure and accident hazards of structures, energy, water, digital and space-service networks, mobility, food systems, cities, ageing assets and industrial plants. | |
سیستەمە زانیاری و سایبەری-فیزیکییەکانcyber |
Compromise or failure of information systems, including attacks that reach physical processes, identity and trust services, systemic cyber events and platforms everything else depends on. | |
تەکنەلۆجیای پێشەنگ و ئاستی بەخێراییtech |
Hazards that arise from frontier and exponential technologies: artificial intelligence, biotechnology, advanced materials, quantum, neurotechnology, autonomy, climate intervention, space systems, digital concentration, advanced manufacturing and energy-transition technology. | |
کۆمەڵگا، ململانێ و ئابووریsoc |
Violence, geopolitical and nuclear confrontation, conflict-induced harm, humanitarian crises, governance and cohesion failure, crime, demographic and labour transitions, macro-fiscal and financial-system shocks, and loss of heritage. | |
ڕووداوە سیستەمی و تێکەڵەکانsys |
Events defined by interaction rather than by one process: supply-chain disruption, cascading failure, compound multi-hazard events and the structural fragility (concentration, coupling, polycrisis) that lets them spread. |

risk classes (global, catastrophic, existential, emerging, planetary, exponential, frontier technology)
| Node | Definition | ستاندارد |
|---|---|---|
Global riskglobal |
A hazard is global when its occurrence, its consequences or its causal chain cross national borders and act at continental or planetary scale, so that no single country can fully assess, prevent or absorb it. | |
مەترسیی کارەساتبارcatastrophic |
A hazard is catastrophic when at least one plausible scenario for it would cause global catastrophe: a very large loss of life, the crippling of global systems, or a civilisational setback that would take generations to recover from. | |
Existential riskexistential |
A hazard is existential when a plausible scenario for it would cause human extinction or a permanent, unrecoverable collapse of humanity’s long-term potential. | |
Emerging riskemerging |
A hazard is emerging when it is new, or is changing fast in nature, scale, likelihood or reach, and the evidence base for assessing it is still thin or immature. | |
Planetary riskplanetary |
A hazard is planetary when it concerns the stability of an Earth-system process: it pressures a planetary boundary, or it is, or directly drives, a tipping element whose change of state would alter the Earth system as a whole. | |
Exponential riskexponential |
A hazard is exponential when its growth or diffusion is self-accelerating, through compounding technology capability, contagion, network effects or reinforcing feedback, so that its scale can outrun linear planning and response. | |
Frontier technology riskfrontier-tech |
A hazard is frontier-tech when it arises from frontier or fast-advancing technology, through accident, misuse, unintended system behaviour or structural effects of its deployment. |

میتۆدۆلۆژی، پێکهاتە و پێناسەکانی Global Risks Index ڕەشنووسێکی کاریی ئامادەکارییە (2026)، کە بۆ پێداچوونەوە و ڕاوبۆچوون بڵاو کراوەتەوە نەک بۆ جێبەجێکردن. هیچ بەهایەک دەرناکەوێت تا وەشانێک لە بڕگەیەکی بەڵگەی حوکمڕانیکراوەوە بڵاو نەکرێتەوە؛ ئینجا بەهاکان مەودا، پۆل، سەرچاوە و ڕێگەی ڕاستکردنەوەیان لەگەڵدایە. سیمولەیتەرەکان ڕێبازە بڵاوکراوەکان لەسەر ئەو ژمارانە جێبەجێ دەکەن کە تۆ هەڵیاندەبژێریت و هەرگیز بەهای NXS-GRX پیشان نادەن.
NXS-GRX چی نییە
NXS-GRX زانیاریی توێژینەوە و شیکاریی مەترسییە. نە پلەبەندیی قەرز یان ESG ە و هیچ پێوەرێکی پلەبەندی بەکار ناهێنێت، نە پێوەرێکی بنەڕەتییە بۆ ئامرازە داراییەکان، نە ئاماری فەرمییە، نە ئاگادارکردنەوەی فریاکەوتن یان پۆلێنکردنی فەرمییە، و نە ئامۆژگارییە. نابێت بۆ هەڵسەنگاندنی کەسە سروشتییەکان بەکار بهێنرێت. پۆلەکانی مەترسی بەشگەلێکن لەسەر پێوەرێکی بڵاوکراو، هەرگیز ڕیزبەندیی وڵاتان یان خەڵک نین.
دامەزراوەکان و سەرچاوەکان
The Nexus Consortium is stewarded by three independent not-for-profit institutions: The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI), through GCRI US in Washington, DC and GCRI Canada in Ontario, with GCRI Canada as Lead Institution, Consortium Secretariat and lead contracting organisation; The Global Risks Forum (GRF); and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA). Technology, infrastructure and service providers work with the Consortium at arm’s length under written agreements, like every other external party in the public-private-planet model, and hold no role in its stewardship.
هەر بەهایەک ناوبردنی خاوەنی سەرچاوەکانی لەگەڵدایە، کە مۆڵەتی خۆیان دەپارێزن. ناوە دەرەکییەکان تەنیا بۆ گونجانی نێوان سیستەمەکان ئاماژەیان پێدەکرێت. ئەو دەقانەی Nexus نووسیونی بڕیارە لە کاتی بڵاوکردنەوەدا بە CC BY 4.0 بن.
Avis en français
La méthodologie et les définitions du NXS-GRX sont un projet de travail préparatoire (2026). Le NXS-GRX est une information de recherche et d’analyse des risques : ni notation, ni indice de référence financier, ni statistique officielle, ni alerte, ni conseil. Les classes de risque sont des bandes sur une échelle publiée, non des classements.
