Rigorous. Impactful. Tailored.
Global Shield has a unique process designed specifically for producing policies that our country offices around the world use for their advocacy. Led by the policy team, this process – called the Policy Research, Development and Diffusion (RD&D) model – ensures that our policy proposals are high-quality, rigorous, impactful and tailored for the relevant country contexts.

We identify key policy questions related to global catastrophic risk, conduct in-depth research to form the foundation for rigorous policy analysis, and generate potential policy ideas to reduce GCR.
Global Shield will focus its policy research, development and diffusion on all-hazards global catastrophic riskGCR. There are four categories for all-hazard GCR that Global Shield consider:
The Policy team identifies key policy questions relating to GCR, conducts in-depth research on priority questions to form the foundation for rigorous policy analysis and development, and gains insights into the implications of GCR on policy and the potential policy ideas for reducing GCR.
The Policy research function includes:
Based on the combination of our own research insights, existing set of policy ideas and engagement with other organizations, the Policy team selects the most promising policy ideas and designs detailed policy proposals. Where policy windows might be available, we conduct a policy development process to build policy proposals. These policy proposals will continue to be iterated and refined based on the latest research and feedback from stakeholders. This will form a library of policy proposals accessible to country offices and strategic partners.
The Policy development function includes:
The Policy team works with country offices to develop tailored policy proposals, building off the country-agnostic policy library. Insights and perspectives gained from these tailored proposals would be incorporated into the master, for the benefit of all country offices. We support the development or tailoring of any further policy products.
The Policy diffusion includes:
