Future Forward

Future Forward is a 20-lesson program to support (young) people in their exploration of the future. 

Change is a constant, meaning the world is always in development. What will it look like in the future, what could it look like in the future, how do you want it to look like in the future. 

While we don’t yet know what the future will look like, we can begin imagining the possibilities today to ensure we will make better choices for tomorrow. The lessons resolve around 5 topics: 

• Perception of time; How we perceive time is connected to how we understand the future. Explore your perception of time and the future from multiple perspectives to help develop your futures literacy. 

• Futures mindset; Learn to see the world as a futurist! By challenging assumptions, developing a critical gaze, and understanding the interconnectedness of the world, you can imagine possible and preferable futures. 

• Multiple futures; There is no single future, but a landscape of constantly emerging and evolving possibilities. Contemplate a plurality of scenarios and visions for some of this century’s most pressing issues. 

• Investing in imaginations; How do we begin to imagine more than one viable future? When we open our imaginations, the possibilities become endless. We each have the capacity to explore, shape and imagine alternative futures. 

• Taking action; Imagine your ideal world 20 years in the future. What does it look like? How can you achieve it? Learn how you can take an active role in creating a better and more positive tomorrow.
