Visions for the World in 2035
The workshop “Visions for the World in 2035” was organised in the EU Policy Lab by the Foresight and Behavioural Insights Unit in collaboration with the European Development Days (EDD15). It hosted 15 Future Leaders between the ages of 21 and 26 who were selected by the EDD15 organisers from around the world to join the debate on development policy and international cooperation. The purpose of the workshop was 1) to introduce the Future Leaders to systemic and long-term strategic thinking, 2) to help them formulate a vision broadly related to their area of activity and thus boost their contribution to the upcoming EDD15 debates, and 3) to foster their positioning as agents of positive change in the coming decades. Through group vision building, plenary discussions and individual pitches, participants shared their experiences, explored megatrends that are likely to shape different possible futures and challenged present assumptions related to social change, youth and development. The aim of the report is to present our insights from the preparation and running of the workshop in order to revise different methods and techniques used and adapted in the context of the EU Policy Lab. This type of an event could be further adapted and replicated in other research and policy contexts.
