Making decisions that embrace complexity, treating uncertainty as a resource not an enemy, calls for a significantly enhanced capacity to use the future to understand the present. Building this greater capacity rests on bringing anticipation out into the open as the way the future exists in the present. Doing so makes clear that conscious human search and choice deploy a range of different anticipatory systems to invent and apply the future to practical decision making. An applied anticipatory systems approach to using the future provides policy and decision makers as well as individuals with an enhanced capacity to both question and invent the anticipatory assumptions that inform their choices. The workshop “The Future of Science in Society”, co-organised by CGEE and the Foresight Programme of Unesco, took place as a satellite event of the World Science Forum in Rio de Janeiro on 28 and 29 November 2013. The workshop had three primary goals. The first was to guide participants through a learning-by-doing process that challenged the implicit and explicit anticipatory assumptions they use to think about the future. In doing so the objective was to test and refine the Futures Literacy methodology being globally shaped through the project entitled "Networking to Improve Global/Local Anticipatory Capacities – A Scoping Exercise", which is being implemented by The Foresight Programme of Unesco. Also, to support CGEE in changing its approach to developing and addressing new strategic questions, in recognising new issues which merit further investigation via systemic and systematic observations and dialogue, as well as in transforming its way of designing, organising, implementing, managing and evaluating its foresight and strategic studies.
