Every year The Global Risks Report seeks to remind readers of the varied interconnections between seemingly diverse global risks. As well as the interconnections explored in the three risk clusters above, each nexus of risks can also be linked back to the new status quo of heightened geopolitical and global security concerns: environmental stresses could increasingly see tensions among countries over access to water and land; mass forced migration can be both a symptom and a cause of cross-border tensions; and emerging technologies are set to transform the international security landscape, alongside many others. The next part of this Report turns the focus to how the global security landscape has and may continue to evolve.
