Abstract: This talk will discuss the need to adopt a decision-theoretic approach to handling uncertainty both to support policy and drive future needs-led research agendas. I argue that the operational steps required to handle uncertainty are generally known, but rarely combined judiciously. This has deleterious ramifications because uncertainties are not coherently considered in decision-making and are often downplayed in expert led science-policy interactions.
