SOCAP23 - 2033: Harnessing Foresight-Driven Impact to Shape the Decade Ahead
Channel: SOCAP Global
Date: 2024-03-30

Almost every day it seems as if we experience the previously unimaginable become reality: a world-changing pandemic, record-breaking temperatures, or the devastating loss of once hard-won rights. When we’re forced to respond to these immediate crises, strategic foresight is necessary to build the future we collectively need. What is future readiness? How should we build a future-ready sector? How can a future-ready philanthropy and investment lens empower communities to address critical challenges in the next decade and beyond? 

In this SOCAP23 session, learn from leaders at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and the Institute for the Future about their shared future-readiness journey and the power of participatory foresight. Test tools for futures-thinking to open your imagination of what’s possible. Envision and enable the future that your community needs.

Speakers:
Rachel Maguire | Institute for the Future (Moderator)
Alandra Washington | W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Carla Thompson Payton | W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Jennifer Rodriguez | Youth Law Center
