Sadc Futures Project

Part of the SADC Futures project is a compilation of resources to help you learn about foresight methods and applications within the SADC region related to climate-resilient agricultural development. The resources include:

• SADC Futures Foresight Training Toolkit which is a summary of the SADC Futures Foresight Framework and it presents content that was given during the webinar series.
• Recordings from the six-part webinar series, an interactive virtual training that equipped users to practically apply the range of foresight tools and methods for innovative strategic planning and policy formulation for climate resilience.
• A range of useful resource documents (see below) associated with foresight training series, including a policy briefing and full reports as accompanying resources to the foresight framework.

This toolkit aims to be an accessible summary of the SADC Futures Foresight Framework and presents content that was given during the SADC Futures webinar series. The purpose of the toolkit is to provide accessible training to multiple stakeholders on key foresight methods and how and when to apply them. Each foresight method or tool is broken down into a series of steps so that the process can be replicated with ease. One of the key aspects of foresight is developing a mindset in thinking about the future and so the toolkit equips users with case studies, probing questions and examples which are highlighted throughout the manual.
