Humanitarian Co-creation Workshop
Foresight & Futures
In this edition of the humanitarian foresight & futures co-creation workshops we aim to focus on six pre-identified work streams and to generate tangible next steps for these multi stakeholder initiatives. In a small group of up to 25 participants we try to brainstorm and to use strategic foresight methods for the different work streams.
Members of following organisations are participating: CERN, Changemakers Lab, Development Initiatives, GAHI, GCSP, GHL, Globe Expert, GMAP, Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Group on Earth Observations (GEO), Handicap & Inclusion, ICRC, Impact Initiatives (REACH), Incitare, IOM, trans.form, UNDP, UNHCR, UNITAR, UNOPS, WeRobotics ...
3 CusineLab chefs from Iran, Sri Lanka and Eritrea will cook, discuss and eat with us during the 2 days.
A visit to the CERN Synchrocyclotron with its Projection Mapping exhibition will complete the agenda.
