Cross Currents: ASRA Network Members in-conversation

Cross Currents is a member-led conversation series where ASRA network members come together to explore the dynamics, disruptions, and discoveries shaping our world. Each episode brings together colleagues from across sectors, disciplines, and geographies for an open, informal dialogue on a topic of their choice. The goal is simple: connect members and create space for open, informal, cross-disciplinary conversations that deepen understanding of the interconnected risks driving today’s polycrisis.

This series is entirely member-driven. Network members identify the most pressing issues in systemic risk and invite colleagues to examine them more deeply through conversation. The views expressed are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect ASRA’s institutional positions.

New episodes will be released regularly.
