Geneva SDG Community Coffee
This Community Coffee meeting will discuss the concept of foresight and how this can be applied to achieving sustainable development.
What is foresight and how can this be applied for achieving sustainable development? At this first SDG community gathering of 2023, we will explore what foresight strategies are and how these can be used to rethink our efforts toward achieving long-term sustainability, looking at methods of horizon scanning, scenario analysis, and back-casting with an interactive panel discussion and group discussions.
This fire-side chat on long-term sustainability will see the participation of Özge Aydogan (Director SDG Lab, UNOG), Pablo Garcia Tello (EU Office, Section Head), CERN, and Nan Buzard (Head of Innovation, Foresight, and Techplomacy) ICRC.
