Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Observatorio de Riesgos Catastróficos Globales (ORCG) Recap 2023, published by JorgeTorresC on December 14, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum.The Global Catastrophic Risks Observatory (ORCG) is a scientific diplomacy organization that emerged in February 2023 to formulate governance proposals that allow the comprehensive management of different global risks in Spanish-speaking countries. We connect decision-makers with experts to achieve our mission, producing evidence-based publications. In this context, we have worked on several projects on advanced artificial intelligence risks, biological risks, and food risks such as nuclear winter.Since its inception, the organization has accumulated valuable experience and generated extensive production. This includes four reports, one produced in collaboration with theAlliance to Feed the Earth in Disasters (ALLFED). In addition, we have produced four academic articles, three of which have been accepted for publication in specialized journals. We have also created three policy recommendations and/or working documents and four notes in collaboration with institutions such as theSimon Institute for Long-term Governance andThe Future Society. In addition, the organization has developed abundant informative material, such asweb articles,videos, conferences, and infographics.During these nine months of activity, the Observatory has established relationships with actors in Spanish-speaking countries, especially highlighting the collaboration with the regional cooperation spaces of the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), as well as with risk management offices at the national level. In this context, we have supported the formulation ofArgentina's National Plan for Disaster Risk Reduction 2024-2030. Our contribution stands out with a specific chapter on extreme food catastrophes, which was incorporated into the work manual of the Information and Risk Scenarios Commission (Technical Commission No. 7).We invite you to send any questions and/or requests toinfo@riesgoscatastroficosglobales.com.
