We Want to Know the Future of the Coronavirus. Too Bad.
The best prophet, Thomas Hobbes once wrote, is the best guesser.
That would seem to be the last word on our capacity to predict the future: We can’t. But it is a truth humans have never been able to accept. People facing immediate danger want to hear an authoritative voice they can draw assurance from; they want to be told what will occur, how they should prepare, and that all will be well. We are not well designed, it seems, to live in uncertainty. Hinesight....for Foresight. A colleague referred me to Byron Reese, the author of Infinite Progress: How the Internet and Technology Will End Ignorance, Disease, Poverty, Hunger and War.
Byron kindly sent me a copy of the book. Having just finished it, thought I’d share a few top-of-mind thoughts. As you might have deduced from the title, the author is an optimist who believes technology will solve all o ur problems. What if Covid-19 isn't our biggest threat? When eventually the coronavirus crisis begins to recede and we return to an approximation of normality – no matter how socially distanced or how much handwashing it involves – we can expect some kind of international initiative to prevent, or at least limit, the spread of future lethal viruses.
As a species we are pretty good at learning from recent experience. It’s what’s known as the availability heuristic – the tendency to estimate the likelihood of an event based on our ability to recall examples. But as the moral philosopher Toby Ord argues in his new book, The Precipice, we are much less adept at anticipating potential catastrophes that have no precedent in living memory.
Futures Literacy. Why is Futures Literacy important?
FL is important because imagining the future is what generates hope and fear, sense-making and meaning. The futures we imagine drive our expectations, disappointments and willingness to invest or to change. We use the future every day. FutureMotions introductiondoc January2018. IRCC Newletter.

Sport appeals to many people for different reasons. For some, it is mainly about the social life, while others like to exercise to benefit their health. For yet others it is about the performance, and finally there is a group whose main aim is to share the world of those at the top of their sport. Precisely this diversity of perspectives – summarised in the report as taking part, exercise, performance and shared experience – is what makes sport special. – barbaragrieve

Let me give a brief history of how I came across it before adapting it to suit my use of the concept. I first began using the Futures Cone diagram in 2000 when working as a foresight analyst for Swinburne University (before becoming an academic in the Master of Strategic Foresight). The text in this post is excerpted from a chapter I recently submitted to the upcoming Handbook of Anticipation, ed. Roberto Poli (Springer International).

This list of issues was initially identified from academic papers and grey literature as having an impact on public policy, and then peer reviewed to focus on those topic areas of most interest, and then narrowed to those considered to be the highest priority through a workshop with parliamentary staff.

Sitra's Megatrends 2017 deal with transformations of working life, the fatigue of democracy and the economy at a crossroads. Our work with future trends continues with Megatrends 2017: Nordic update.
This year’s review of the most significant future trends pays particular attention to trends that have an impact in the North. This year’s Sitra Megatrends look at future developments in terms of three large trends: In honour of Finland’s centenary in 2017, we want to highlight the megatrends affecting work, democracy and inclusion, and growth and progress that are relevant to the Nordic model. All of these are themes specifically at the core of the Nordic model’s future. Singapore Foresight 2017. Singapore Conversations for the future Vol 1. Singapore Conversations for the future vol2.

Strategic Foresight Strategic foresight helps us understand the forces shaping a system, how the system could evolve and what challenges, opportunities and surprises could emerge. It is a systematic process that surfaces and tests our assumptions and mental models about an issue and then uses our capacity to simulate and visualize how it could evolve. The objective is not to predict the future, but explore the range of plausible futures that could emerge and develop vision, strategies and policies that are robust across that range.
By exploring how issues or systems could evolve, strategic foresight ensures that we are preparing for the problem as it will be, and not solving the problem as it was. Applied in concert with design thinking, it is used to inform a project in order to develop future focused interventions. Resources. The next era of well being ideals vision and solutions.

Governments of many nations have long understood that it is critical to take a structured approach to thinking about the future in order to better build prosperous societies. Below is a summary of major agencies from a select group of major countries that have an explicit remit for foresight activities.
In the next weeks we intend to significantly expand the scope of this analysis to include other nations and a broader view of future-oriented policy initiatives in the countries already covered. Australia Australia has used strategic foresight in its public sector many times including its own Commission for the Future (1985-1998). Scenario planning reports have been produced by the Australian Taxation Service, Australian Federal Police, Child Support Agency, CSIRO’s Data61, and other agencies. FOR-LEARN.
