Imagining the Future – Together

Join us to explore what a better future might look like - and what it would take to get there.

Why this workshop?

People want change - but most of us struggle to picture what a positive, fair, sustainable future could actually look like. This limits our capacity to act, collaborate, and imagine anything beyond the status quo. This workshop is designed to open that up - bringing different perspectives and exploring them collectively.

What will we do?

This is a hands-on, interactive session. You'll spend most of the time thinking, discussing and creating with others.

Together, we'll:

• Explore how our minds make sense of the future
• Use futures tools to imagine multiple pathways ahead
• Reflect on what “better” really means in a changing world
• Surface shared hopes, concerns and motivations

There are no right or wrong answers. The emphasis is on conversation, curiosity and collaboration.

Do I need any experience?

No prior knowledge is needed – either in futures thinking or in the big trends shaping the world. You don’t need a background in policy, academia or sustainability. The workshop is designed for everyone, and is built around lived experience, curiosity and conversation rather than expertise.

Who's it for?

Anyone curious about change or asking themselves: What comes next?

What is Shared Horizon?

Shared Horizon is CIC, broadening what people think possible. We adapt techniques from strategic foresight into accessible, participatory experiences: visioning workshops, data collection on futures thinking, and media and advocacy projects that make positive transformation feel visible and real.
