Risk Perception Gaps – Government risk communications in Singapore, South Korea and China

This report is the first in a series employing survey data from Singapore, South Korea, and China. Each report highlights a different dimension of public perceptions surrounding everyday risks, including:

• Whether risk information provided by public authorities is accessible, understandable and relevant to members of the public;
• Whether individuals see governments, private companies, the media and fellow citizens as giving sufficient attention to risks;
• Whether current protective actions against risks are perceived as adequate in the eyes of the public.

The insights from this research are intended to help decision-makers develop more effective risk communication strategies and to foster greater risk know-how among individuals.
