7 About the course: Foresight Exploring the Future, Shaping the Present The world continues to experience great uncertainty about the unfolding economic crisis and it s wider aftershocks. Many countries, industries and public services face uncertain and challenging futures where the quest for opportunities is increasingly competitive. Economic discontent has combined with existing political stresses to catch many institutions and countries - wrong- footed. Meanwhile, globalisation, demographic, environmental and technological trends are reshaping the rules of the game. This intensifies the need for reflection upon all sorts of assumptions, plans and strategies for the long- term future. The (MIoIR) has been running an annual foresight training course for over a decade. Our fifteenth course, in 2014, explores ways in which foresight can help decision- makers confronted with the uncertainties outlined above. What do we have to look for on and over the horizon? How can this be tackled systematically, with results that are really useful for decision- makers? What is the role for scenario analysis and planning? The course provides a concentrated and intensive, practically- orientated learning experience. It explicates why, and how, we should apply forward looking approaches. It considers how to move beyond narrow technology foresight: how to address interrelations between social and environmental issues, and the application of foresight and horizon scanning tools to complex topics such as health and sustainable innovation. The approaches presented are generally applicable, but illustrated with specific cases. The course emphasises the application of foresight to inform strategies, policies, and priorities. Coordinated lectures and practical work enable participants to experience the relevance and the realities of foresight activity. The course is aimed at people whose work is liable to affect the future of business, government or Non- Governmental Organisations. For instance, they may work, or expect to work, as: sponsors of foresight projects foresight practitioners entrepreneurs senior managers company directors The Institute's unique position in foresight activity has resulted in wide international participation in the course in previous years. This includes people from over 50 including: Canada, the Caribbean, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Latin America, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, the Russian Federation, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, Turkey, the UK and many other countries. The course draws upon MIoIR's extensive experience of organising, consulting, researching and teaching/training in foresight activities across Europe, Latin America, Africa and the Middle and Far East. We have provided direct assistance to more than a dozen countries' national Foresight exercises, and have longstanding co- operation with the EC and UNIDO. 6
