Synopsis
• Clear, incisive presentation of the key issues facing society over the next decade
• The collected insights of the largest-ever assembled group of experts from all fields
• Interdisciplinary in approach, innovative in its conclusions
In a world which has become more interconnected yet more complex and uncertain, how do we attempt to understand what the future may hold? Companies, institutions and governments across the world are increasingly recognizing the value of sharing their insights to protect the interests of all humanity.
The Future Agenda program - the world's largest open forum of its kind - was founded in 2009, its aim to bring together experts from the widest possible spectrum of industries and activities and to produce an informed and credible view of the ways in which the world is changing. This book documents the findings of the second Future Agenda initiative, conducted in 2015 in over one hundred workshops across fifty countries, bringing together more than five thousand organizations.
Organized under the key themes of People, Place, Power, Belief, Behavior and Business, The Future Agenda: Six Challenges for the Next Decade analyzes a staggering range of the most pressing problems facing today's (and tomorrow's) world, from fertility to food waste, obesity to overpopulation, sanitation to cyber terrorism. It is essential reading for all concerned by our collective wellbeing.
