European Risk Policy Institute
The European Risk Policy Institute is an independent, non-political organisation dedicated to strengthening strategic risk policy, anticipatory governance, and systemic resilience across Europe and an increasingly exposed 3°C world. ERPI supports leaders, Boards, Executive Committees, and public institutions in navigating accelerating disruption, structural volatility, and the erosion of traditional decision-making models. Our work is grounded in the 3°C World Strategic Risk Policy® (3CWSRP®) framework — a forward-looking architecture designed to help governments, organisations, and societies anticipate nonlinear risks, maintain continuity lifelines, and respond coherently in a world defined by climate acceleration, geopolitical fractures, cognitive overload, and narrative instability. ERPI develops advanced analytical tools including the Polaris Registry, the PerilScope Strategic Intelligence Series, and cross-sector diagnostics for exposure, interdependence, adaptive capacity, and foresight. These tools are designed to support strategic clarity, improve systemic awareness, and elevate risk policy to the highest level of leadership practice. ERPI operates as the European counterpart within the Global Risk Policy Network, led by the Australian Risk Policy Institute (ARPI). Together, we promote the integration of risk policy into governance, bridging strategic foresight, ethics, continuity, and resilience across public, private, and civil-society domains. Our mission is simple: to ensure that Europe’s leaders, institutions, and communities can think ahead, act with coherence, and maintain continuity in an age where disruption is constant and the cost of ignorance is existential.

България На Младите
България на младите е водещият изцяло младежки think tank в България. Нашата мисия е да отваряме врати на младото поколение и да изграждаме бъдещите лидери на България. Ние изграждаме характерите, които ще водят България към светло и устойчиво бъдеще при следващата смяна на поколенията. Занимаваме се с това от 27.10. 2017 година и досега сме организирали две интерактивни образователни събития (симулации) на държавна власт - Модел Република България 2018 в Министерството на труда и социалната политика и Модел Република България 2019 в Американския университет в България, които предоставиха възможност на повече от 150 ученици и студенти от цялата страна да дискутират важни за обществото проблеми. Екипът ни е млад, активен, амбициозен и граждански ангажиран, състоящ се от ученици и студенти с интереси, познания и умения в различни сфери на живота. Принципите, от които винаги се ръководим, са професионализъм, свободата на словото и перфекционизъм. Нашите събития предоставят на аудиторията различни гледни точки, многообразие на темите и ангажираност във всички сфери на обществото. Целта ни като организация е създаването на контакти между младите хора в България, както и изграждането на мостове с бизнеса, различни експерти и институции. Мисията ни винаги е била провеждането на различни по теми дискусии, изграждането на гражданското общество, както и активно участие в промяната на социално-икономическата среда в България. Официално "България на младите" стана част от BESCO – The Bulgarian Startup Association! Неправителствена организация, която свързва стартъпи, инвеститори, правителство, институции и други заинтересовани страни, свързани с иновациите. “България на младите, защото сме убедени в способността на младото поколение да постигне положителна промяна в българското общество.”
