  • Summary of the ONE Society track > opportunities and challenges

    Open AccessLynn J Frewer, Lynn Frewer et al.ARTICLEJournal of Risk Research2023References: 1

    This report summarises the main discussions, conclusions and recommendations of the ‘One Society’ track of the ‘ONE – Health, Environment & Society – Conference 2022’ (21st–24th June 2002; Brussels and online), which was organised by the European Food Safety Authority. The four themes in the One Society track focused on risk communication, social science, engagement, including collaboration, the EU research agenda, and open science: more specific…

  • Stakeholder engagement in food risk management

    Open AccessJohn Walls, Gene Rowe et al.ARTICLEPublic Understanding of Science2011

    There are considerable uncertainties regarding how stakeholder engagement should be enacted. The lack of clear guidelines on good practice is arguably a consequence of an absence of evaluations on the effectiveness of past engagement exercises. Here we describe the evaluation of one engagement event concerning food risk management. This event involved presenting a novel food risk analysis model to key stakeholders in two workshops (in 2005 and 20…

  • Food risk management quality

    Ellen Van Kleef, Øydis Ueland et al.ARTICLEHealth Risk & Society2009

    In European countries, there has been growing consumer distrust regarding the motives of food safety regulators and other actors in the food chain, partly as a result of recent food safety incidents. If consumer confidence in food safety is to be improved, a systematic understanding of what consumers perceive to be best practice in risk management is crucial. Previous qualitative and quantitative research has revealed underlying factors determini…

  • A perceptual divide? Consumer and expert attitudes to food risk management in Europe

    Athanasios Krystallis, Lynn J Frewer et al.ARTICLEHealth Risk & Society2007

    Crises in food risk management have often been attributed to disconnection between the stakeholders involved, as when consumers do not believe risk communications or dispute risk managers' priorities. Before this problem of disconnection can be resolved, however, there is a need to clarify the nature and extent of perceptual discrepancies between stakeholders and to establish whether mutual understanding is attainable. Our recent research has ide…

  • The views of scientific experts on how the public conceptualize uncertainty

    Lynn J Frewer, Lynn Frewer et al.ARTICLEJournal of Risk Research2003Cited by: 17References: 4

    Scientific experts (drawn from scientific institutions, universities, industry, and government) were interviewed about how they thought the general public might handle information about uncertainty associated with risk analysis. It was found that, for many people within the scientific community, there was a widespread belief that the general public were unable to conceptualize uncertainties associated with risk management processes. Many scientis…

  • Newspaper reporting of hazards in the UK and Sweden

    Open AccessGene Rowe, Lynn J Frewer et al.ARTICLEPublic Understanding of Science2000

    Public understanding of risks is likely to be informed by the media. We report a cross-national study looking at how newspapers in Sweden and the United Kingdom characterize a variety of risks, focusing on two months around the 10 th anniversary of the Chernobyl accident. Approximately four times as many reports about risks were found in Sweden as in the U.K., possibly reflecting a Swedish safety culture. The Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE…
