Foresight

Enhancing foresight skills and making learning actionable

Foresight researchers are working with partners to strengthen their capacity to understand and use foresight metrics and tools, and to use foresight results to shape decision-making. This includes (i) jointly assessing key foresight training needs; (ii) developing scaling mechanisms for the uptake of integrated foresight tools, data and analysis; (iii) building capacity on foresight tools, data and analysis; and (iv) monitoring key outcome and impact indicators to inform learning processes and enable course adjustments to be made.

Led by Dolapo Enahoro and Tonya Schütz, with a multidisciplinary team of experts from around the world.
