Today’s global risks are volatile, interconnected, and increasingly unpredictable. From pandemics and cyber disruptions to resource crises and political shocks — reacting isn’t enough. This course equips you to anticipate.

Designed for analysts, planners, and professionals, this course offers practical exposure to foresight tools that go beyond traditional analysis — so you can think in futures, not just trends.

Across two live 90-minute sessions, we apply scenario-building, horizon scanning, and stress-testing to global challenges, with real-time exercises and peer feedback.

What you’ll learn:

Session 1: Thinking Beyond the Linear

– Foresight vs. forecasting

– Tools: horizon scanning, weak signals, and wild cards

Session 2: Strategic Applications

– Scenario planning and policy stress testing

– Using foresight to shape strategy under uncertainty

Why it matters:

Foresight shifts your work from reactive to proactive — helping you prepare for uncertainty, challenge assumptions, and design strategies with resilience in mind.
