---------- Forwarded message --------- From: ec_davies(a)yahoo.ca <PAEPARD(a)faraafrica.community> Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2022, 16:10 Subject: [paepard] FW: SGCI call for Expressions of Interest (EoI) now open - "Foresight in Research and Innovation for Development in Africa" - Deadline 15 August 2022 To: Platform for African – European Partnership in Agricultural Research for Development Phase II (PAEPARD II) <PAEPARD(a)faraafrica.community>, FARA network <fara-net(a)faraafrica.community> Dear Maurice I just wanted to comment on the call for proposals. I'm setting up a study right now which actually employs a combination of foresight and backcasting. Being able to use both techniques will be important moving forward. Backcasting takes an idealized future state like Net Zero, then moves backwards to identify what policies changes and activities need to be undertaken in order to realize this future state. The Seeds of Change Report I just released does the reverse of this. It projects trends into the future and then identifies potential consequences of that future state. Its incredibly important to combine creativity and stakeholder consultation with research in foresight. Just keep in mind the research for foresight heavily relies heavily on social media and recent news coverage to identify emerging trends. It focuses less on journals and standard research sources. Best of luck to those considering undertaking this work!
