Futures Literacy across the Deep Demonstration (FLxDeep) is a project funded by EIT Climate KIC. At the core of the project lies the belief that our anticipatory thinking \u2013our images and assumptions about the future- conditions the way we see and act in the present. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hence, (large-scale) transformation efforts are bounded by our anticipatory thinking \u2013 the futures we use (e.g. probabilistic, plausible, possible, preferable, preposterous, official, transformative etc). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By diversifying why and how we use futures (by becoming futures literate) we maximize the potential for transformation, drawing on ways and processes for better preparation and planning [anticipation for the Future] as well as – if not more importantly- on ways and processes for experimentation, novelty, simulation of emergence, learning in complexity [anticipation for emergence].   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The overall objective of the project is to introduce, co-create and implement processes conducive to Futures Literacy as a means to support climate related social, business and technological innovation and systems’ transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project targets three out of eight EIT Climate KIC Deep Demonstrations, namely:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–Longtermism<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

–Net zero Emissions Maritime Hubs<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

–Just Transformations<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applying participatory action research approaches and co-creation techniques, FLxDeep will generate, document, and share stories of impact and best practices for developing futures literacy for whole system transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
