Shaping the future: Insights from futures thinking and strategic foresight in the Global South
This joint report from the UN Futures Lab/Global Hub and the International Science Council (ISC) explores how strategic foresight is being applied across the Global South. Featuring 14 case studies, the report illustrates how diverse actors, from community organizations to government bodies, are using futures thinking to address real-world challenges and support inclusive, long-term decision-making.
utures thinking and strategic foresight are key to helping us address complex issues and deal with significant uncertainty – and to embedding long-term perspectives that consider implications on future generations.
To contribute to fostering this culture of anticipation and preparedness, and to building a multilateral system that remains relevant for current and future generations, the UN Futures Lab/Global Hub and the ISC have collaborated to better understand the concrete and transformational role of futures thinking and strategic foresight in informing decision-making and action.
The outcome of this collaboration is a joint report on “Futures Thinking and Strategic Foresight in Action: Insights from the Global South.”
