pre-emptive governance

Pre-emptive governance refers to the practice of implementing policies, regulations, or actions proactively to prevent potential problems before they occur. Instead of reacting after issues arise, governments or organizations identify risks early and address them in advance, aiming to maintain stability, safety, and the public good. It involves strategic planning, data analysis, and foresight to anticipate challenges—such as environmental threats, technological risks, or social concerns—and take measures to mitigate their impact, ensuring smoother and more resilient management of societal issues.
