Need of formal research in Risk Knowledge Management-Call for papers

We need to do more formal research to understand how to manage our knowledge in risk management. We need to understand how to deal with the known, unknown and unknowable in risk management. For example, with the known we could need to improve the way that we transfer our knowledge to stakeholders and to improve the correct use of tools and means to know. With the unknown we might need to identify the ways to deal with risk effects and to search for ways to know. With the unknowable we should learn how to react and deal with the post adverse events and to develop means to reduce losses and to rebuild what has been affected.

I have been participating with my research in forums seeking to understand more the way that knowledge Management can support Risk Management. Really, this is a very long and complex road to move through. Many things are related, people’s knowledge, socio-economic conditions, risk management systems, human and organization power positions, regulations etc.

I want to invite more people to participate with formal research to discover how to improve our risk knowledge management and to achieve the goal of how to be more effective and efficient using this knowledge for reducing the negative consequences of the adverse events. This year I am the chair of two mini-tracks in the field of application of Knowledge Management to risk Management.

One of the mini-tracks is related to decisions under risk and knowledge management and another one is related to the knowledge processes and risk management. Send your papers and enrich the discussions among practitioners and academics around the world. The conferences are academic, peer review and with great people involved.
