Dear colleagues,

I hope this email finds you healthy and safe. We are all experiencing unprecedented disruptions to our daily lives. Our thoughts are with those who have been directly affected by the Coronavirus. While our immediate priority must be to contain the spread of the virus and protect those who are most vulnerable, this moment also provides an opportunity for reflection and reimagination of our future.

To capture some of these thoughts from around the globe, Future Earth and the Grantham Institute for Climate Change and Environment, with the support of an international team of advisors (see below), are launching a rapid foresight survey to take the pulse of the global population at this unique moment, to help inform what will soon emerge as a global conversation on where we go from here?’ and to help shape recovery strategies when we begin to rebuild.

We invite you to share your perspectives by responding to this 15 minute rapid foresight survey on the opportunities and challenges for building forward from this crisis.

What are the biggest challenges and opportunities we will face when we begin to rebuild from this crisis? Are there new perspectives or new approaches that might emerge from this crisis that could help
or constrain us from advancing toward a more resilient, sustainable, and equitable world?


Thank you in advance for taking the time to participate in this survey HERE and sharing this invitation with your networks.

Best wishes,

Amy Luers

Dear colleagues,

 

I would like to share this global foresight survey from Future Earth about the challenges and opportunities of the current crisis. Please fill it out and share with your students. It is a great teaching tool as students can share what they predict the headlines will be in 3 years…

 

And here is a tweet if you’d like to share

How do you see the future and how has your perceptions of risk changed in light of the current #COVID-19 crisis?  Share your perspective. Take this 15-min survey from @FutureEarth & @Grantham_IC. https://bit.ly/2ynUkeh #sparktheconversation #sustainabilitydigitalage

 

Kind regards,
