ABOUT THE PROGRAMme

The Emerging Fellows Programme is designed to recognize emerging futurists and mentor them to develop their Foresight capabilities. It emphasizes authenticity and personal growth, aiming to help you discover and develop your unique voice through writing and community engagement. With its global reach, the program underscores the importance of embracing a foresight mindset and making it accessible through collaborative learning.

 

Over the two-year process, fellows will learn about foresight tools, develop their writing competencies on Futures issues, contribute to projects within the field, grow their networks of practitioners, and mentor successive cohorts to ensure the program's sustainability. Under the direction of Patricia Lustig, who has been the director of the programme since April 2021, fellows will write about their selected topics and work, with their essays featured on the APF blog.
