Foresight is an approach that positions policymakers and private sector operators to address issues that will, or could, emerge in the medium-to-long term. The approach starts with gathering different types of information through forward-looking techniques, such as horizon scanning, scenario building, or Delphi surveys, analyzing it, and then using it to inform a proactive decision-making process. While no one can predict the future, we can prepare for different possibilities by looking at early signs of change.
