Out of mounting global uncertainties rises an urgent need to reconsider how strategic planning can help us better prepare for the future. Within this context, we explore the concept of strategic foresight and highlight ICCROM\u2019s recent investigation into the future of cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>We see enormous value in applying strategic foresight to how we think about cultural heritage and the contribution it can make to people\u2019s lives in the decades to come if properly safeguarded. As an organization charged with promoting conservation in all corners of the globe, we have an obligation to proactively identify external forces and address their potential impacts, and also put forward a compelling vision for a future in which the benefits of cultural heritage are fully harnessed. Through foresight, we can begin to form this bigger picture.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here is ICCROM&#8217;s short explanation of strategic foresight (on youtube):<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gCFZNCdkn7c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2389\" src=\"https:\/\/blogg.lnu.se\/unesco\/files\/2022\/02\/Picture-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"477\" height=\"257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogg.lnu.se\/unesco\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/209\/files\/sites\/209\/2022\/02\/Picture-1.png 451w, https:\/\/blogg.lnu.se\/unesco\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/209\/files\/sites\/209\/2022\/02\/Picture-1-300x162.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 477px) 100vw, 477px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since 2021, I have been advising the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM) in their Heritage Foresight initiative.
