Futures Thinking series starts 17 Sep

This workshop series is for research staff and Principal Investigators to explore futures thinking as a creative and strategic tool for shaping research, career direction and academic practice. They use futures methods to support insight, vision creation, creativity, agency and strategic thinking, particularly during times of uncertainty or change.

Each of the workshops are standalone but there will be themes which build across the workshops for participants who attend all the sessions.
