GCRI is pleased to announce the publication of its newest resource for the global catastrophic risk community, a time zone coordination guide. This resource is helpful for anyone who needs to coordinate activities across multiple time zones around the world, whether for global catastrophic risk or for other purposes.

Global catastrophic risk is of course an inherently global issue. Likewise addressing it benefits from contributions from around the world. GCRI is increasingly active in facilitating a global conversation about global catastrophic risk. Sometimes these conversations are asynchronous, such as via email, in which case people can chime in whenever they want. But often, such as with GCRI’s discussion groups and public lectures, the conversation occurs synchronously, in which case time zone coordination is essential. In order to facilitate our own activities and those of anyone else working across time zones, we have released this resource.
