# ACCELERATORS

**Where this fits:** all six sectors · the Labs and Foundry pillars, tested in Universe missions · the Nexus Consortium · Q1 experiments to Q3 Action Week · programme design (accelerator tracks) · see [Labs](/organization/programme/labs.md); [Foundry](/organization/programme/foundry.md); [The Model: sectors](/organization/model/sectors.md).

**In brief.** This page sets out ACCELERATORS in the accelerator tracks, where Labs experiments are built in the Foundry pillar and tested in Universe missions. An experiment is exploratory and becomes evidence only after the Foundry pillar rebuilds it and a Universe mission tests it; illustrative scenarios on these pages are not records of delivered projects. The case for investing in tested, resilient capability is made in [Hallegatte, S., Rentschler, J. and Rozenberg, J. 2019](https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/31805) and [Global Commission on Adaptation 2019](https://gca.org/reports/adapt-now-a-global-call-for-leadership-on-climate-resilience/); the OECD recommendation on the governance of critical risks frames how such work serves public authorities ([OECD 2014](https://legalinstruments.oecd.org/en/instruments/OECD-LEGAL-0405)).

**Read with the current model (2026-10-21).**

* Cases, results and figures on these pages are **illustrative scenarios**, not records of delivered projects; no outcome described here has been observed or verified.
* No contribution, sponsorship or membership buys a seat, a vote, office or a technical conclusion; ordinary participation has no fee ([Councils](/organization/governance-in-operation/councils.md)).
* Technology is described as the twenty Nexus systems by their NXS codes (for compute and networks, [NXS-COR](/organization/systems/nxs-cor.md) and [NXS-NET](/organization/systems/nxs-net.md)); "Foundry" is the bare pillar word for the build work ([Systems](/organization/systems.md); [Foundry](/organization/programme/foundry.md)).
* DAO, token, NFT and on-chain governance language describes earlier design concepts. No DAO, token or on-chain body exists or governs any part of the programme; National Working Groups are expert working groups under [National Nexus](/organization/governance-in-operation/national-nexus.md), with bounded, supervised assignments and no fee for ordinary participation ([National Working Groups](/organization/governance-in-operation/nwg.md)).
* Everything described here is in formation: no national, regional or global programme is recorded as constituted or active, and the current service level is R0, information and enquiries ([Status and service levels](/organization/governance-in-operation/status-and-service-levels.md)).
* [Nexus Standards](/organization/institutions/nexus-standards.md) that bear on this page: [NS-11](https://nexustandards.com/standards/ns-11/) (verification and monitoring), [NS-12](https://nexustandards.com/standards/ns-12/) (software, models and AI/ML artifacts), [NS-5](https://nexustandards.com/standards/ns-5/) (figures, maps and visualization). Their text and status on nexustandards.com govern.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.therisk.global/organization/acceleration/accelerators.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
