Observatory for Research
on Existential Threats:
AI, Climate Change,
Human-Made Pandemics

This NKUA Observatory monitors and communicates research on existential threats to humanity and life on Earth. Through regular outputs, including an Annual Report, it documents research conducted at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, across Greece’s research institutions, and internationally, drawing on the work of leading relevant observatories and research centres/institutes worldwide. Comparable observatories and related institutions have been established in recent years at leading international universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, MIT, and Stanford.
