The National Institute for Research on Socioeconomic Impacts of Diseases and Systemic Risks (abbreviated as SYRI) is a virtual scientific hub that brings together experts from Masaryk University, Charles University and institutes of the Czech Academy of Sciences.
The SYRI National Institute will bring together scientists who would not otherwise collaborate and provide solutions and recommendations in real-time.
Social scientists will focus on research of situations of risk and mitigation options for the reduction of problems brought by sudden unexpected events like the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, inflation, price increases, and climate change.
The recent past has clearly shown us how our time is prone to situations of risk, and that socioeconomic inequalities are deepening. One of SYRI’s goals is to provide data and in-depth analysis of a kind that has been lacking in the Czech Republic so that politicians can make the right decisions.
