Project summary
The foresight project Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities aimed to support the reflections of the corresponding Mission Board by providing future - oriented inputs on challenges and options in the area. The overarching goal of the project proposed was to c omplement the Mission Board’s deep and wide-ranging expertise with a foresight perspective. In particular, the project intended to develop a forward-looking perspective on the importance and future significance of the mission area. Starting with a systemic analysis, the FOD team identified urban challenges in existing forward-looking studies in order to determine the thematic scope together with the Mission Board, collected data about consolidated external and internal drivers, trends and practices as well as weak signals, potential disruptive events or incremental changes with a potentially substantial positive impact on cities.Resources
