The EXTRA Working Group is engaging globally with numerous organisations and agencies (see our list of Existential Risk networks) to help us develop the InfoHub, and simultaneously to amplify their work and promote their events. Collaborative activities with partners include webinars, interviews, invited op-eds, foresight exercises, and, in the future, training programs. These strategies aim to strengthen global cooperation and ultimately global governance for understanding and managing existential threats and risks.

Organizations Focusing on Existential Threats and Risks
The listing below identifies organizations that focus on general threats or risks, as well as selected organizations focusing on individual threats (climate, biodiversity, nuclear weapons, health, and AI). Organization name, place, and date of founding are followed by one or more recent publications or meetings, and a reference number to the Report on Recent Reports series of the 2023 ER2H Bibliography for an abstract.
NOTE: Many titles of reports and articles have been shortened to conserve space.
