I was first introduced to Loes, and Futures Literacy, by another BWL guest, Laureline Simon. When Laureline shared in her network that she was co-hosting a course on Futures Literacy for transformative climate action, I was drawn in and joined the cohort to experience this wonderful, exhilarating and enlivening work myself.
Those days immersed in the Futures Literacy framework were the first of what has now become a continuing interaction with Loes Damhof, UNESCO Chair of Futures Literacy at Hanze University in Gronigen in Holland. I've been honoured and delighted to have co-created this conversation with Loes to bring an overview of Futures Literacy to our community here, and invite you to begin your journey into this specific way of building capability in the present to navigate uncertainty and find clarity in ambiguity through explorations and experiences of possible futures.
Loes and I hope you enjoy this conversation, and will accept our invitation to engage this work via the links below and we hope in a co-created learning experience coming early in 2024.
