Future Workshop

Future Workshop

Short description

Future Workshop is one amongst other methods to determine ethics aspects in planning matters. Participants are encouraged to develop imaginative, unconventional solutions to issues of current interest, by means of an atmosphere designed to promote creativity.

Process

1. Criticism phase: analyzing the current situation and identifying the problems.
2. Fantasy phase: developing ideas and suggestions (initially these can perfectly well be utopian – obstacles in the real world are ignored at this stage).
3. Realization phase: structuring the suggestions, investigating how realistic they are, reaching agreement on what happens next.

Help in addressing cultural/ethical aspects in planning of secure public spaces

• Developing visions, e.g. when a statement of principles, a development scenario, a far-reaching project for the future etc. is to be put together
• Searching for new, creative solutions for existing problems or issues
