Global Survey · 2025–2026

Global Crisis & Emergency
Communication Outlook.

A practitioner-led, international survey on how crisis, risk and emergency communication is evolving — across all world regions and sectors.

About This Survey

A Different Kind
of Research.

Most of the existing research and benchmarks in our field are heavily focused on a single country or region, often the United States. This project is different on purpose.

We are reaching out to practitioners across all world regions and sectors — corporate, government, public health, emergency services, humanitarian, NGOs and international organisations — to build a genuinely international picture of how crisis, risk and emergency communication is evolving.

We are particularly interested in how you experience an increasingly polycrisis environment: overlapping crises, fast-moving risks, AI-driven mis/disinformation, and growing pressure on systems and people.

Survey Themes

What We Seek
to Understand.

Risks & Challenges

The risks and challenges you expect to shape your work in the coming years.

Organisational Preparedness

How prepared your organisation really is to communicate in crises.

AI & Mis/Disinformation

How AI and mis/disinformation are changing your day-to-day practice.

Cross-Border Realities

The realities of working across borders, cultures and languages.

Wellbeing & Outlook

The pressures on your wellbeing and your outlook on staying in the field.

Time Required

Approximately 10–12 minutes, depending on how much you choose to write in the open questions.

Anonymity & Privacy

Participation is voluntary and anonymous. Results will only be reported in aggregated form so that no individual or organisation can be identified. Any email address provided is stored separately from survey answers.

Share Widely

You are welcome to share this survey with colleagues and contacts directly involved in crisis, risk or emergency communication. The survey includes segmentation questions to keep responses focused and relevant.

"By sharing your experience, you are helping to create one of the first truly international, practitioner-led outlooks on crisis, risk and emergency communication. Thank you for contributing your perspective."

— Philippe Borremans, RiskComms
