Abstract What do climate change, global financial crises, pandemics, and fragility and conflict have in common? They are all examples of global risks that can cross geographical and generational boundaries and whose mismanagement can reverse gains in development and jeopardize the well-being of generations. Managing risks such as these becomes a global public good, whose benefits also cross boundaries, providing a rationale for collective action facilitated by the international community. Yet, as many public goods, provision of global public goods suffer from collective action failures that undermine international coordination. This paper discusses the obstacles to addresing these global risks effectively, highlighting their implications for the current juncture. It claims that remaining gaps in information, resources, and capacity hamper accumulation and use of knowledge to triger appropriate action, but diverging national interests remain the key impediment to cooperation and effectiveness of global efforts, even when knowledge on the risks and their consequences are well understood. The paper argues that managing global risks requires a cohesive international community that enables its stakeholders to work collectively around common goals by facilitating sharing of knowledge, devoting resources to capacity building, and protecting the vulnerable. When some countries fail to cooperate, the international community can still forge cooperation, including by realigning incentives and demonstrating benefit from incremental steps toward full cooperation.

Nerve conduits have shown to successfully bridge nerve gaps of less than or equal to 3 cm; however repair of longer, mixed or motor nerve gaps still remains a clinical challenge. In order to study regeneration techniques in clinically relevant long gaps, larger animal models are required. Standardized methods to evaluate functional outcome are necessary to clinically translate experimental treatments. In this study, the capability of the biodegradable and transparent cross-linked doped polyester elastomer (CUPE) to serve as a nerve conduit material in a multiluminal nerve conduit across a 5 cm gap in a rabbit common peroneal nerve model was evaluated. The effect of growth promoting factor, pleiotrophin released from microparticles and from fibers within a synthetic multiluminal conduit in bridging a 5 cm long gap, was also investigated. Functional outcome was analyzed using toe spread, sensory parameters, force and muscle weights at the end of twelve weeks in the injured and uninjured hindlimbs of each rabbit. Qualitatively CUPE demonstrated better function than polyurethane in supporting the structure of agarose microchannels, however histological analysis revealed no axonal regeneration across the gap in any of the conduits. This summarizes the results of the first two aims. Variance in gait pattern is one of the most significant observations after peripheral nerve injury Video gait analysis, together with joint kinematics, was used to characterize the gait and ankle angle changes in the injured rabbits during treadmill locomotion. Foot drop, exaggerated knee flexion characteristic of peroneal injury was observed. In summary, this pilot study revealed the necessity of regenerative substrate and trophic support across a 5 cm long gap, established the changes in kinematic parameters after peroneal nerve injury in a rabbit model.
