Anticipating futures for civil society operating space

A three-year initiative to strengthen anticipatory capacities and future readiness of civic space-focused civil society professionals that will create synergies between SANE’s civic space community and the futures-focused Scanning the Horizon’s community. The initiative aims to increase awareness and readiness of (I)CSOs in addressing current and future challenges at the intersection of civic space and crises, develop future scenarios, and translate them into concrete strategies to become more futures-ready.

The project aims to increase the signal-scanning and future-facing capacities of CSOs, in line
with the following three main objectives:

  1. Increasing the awareness and readiness of CSOs in addressing current and future
    challenges at the intersection of civic space and crises;
  2. Offering a convening and collaborative space for civil society professionals to develop
    future scenarios in the context of civic space and crises;
  3. Translating developed scenarios into concrete strategies and strengthening capacities
    at the individual, organisational and sector level to be more futures-ready.

The initiative was kicked off at the International Civic Forum in London on 2-3 November 2022.
