The future is an ever-present consideration for those engaged in advancing gender equality, with a constant focus on striving towards gender-equal futures.
Foresight aims to systematically engage with possible and desirable futures to orient today’s actions and decisions towards improving long-term outcomes.
By identifying and anticipating change with the help of foresight, we can equip ourselves with options to proactively work towards desirable futures, instead of staying reactive.
The primary aim of this guide is to support a diverse audience, including researchers, activists, policymakers and others working to advance gender equality.
It seeks to connect the worlds of academic futures studies, corporate strategic foresight and a more critical tradition, feminist-informed foresight, offering practical tools and methods for integrating futures thinking into a wide range of gender equality initiatives and contexts.
