#EoI - Leveraging Megatrends and Systems Thinking

Workshop

Join this Masterclass and learn new methods to position your research work within broader trends.

Megatrend mapping and systems thinking are powerful tools that enable scientists to anticipate changes, spot emerging opportunities, and navigate the complex interconnections that shape their fields. These methods help researchers position their work within broader trends, giving them an edge in adapting to future challenges. In this interactive workshop, we will explore how understanding megatrends and thinking in systems can open up new possibilities in your specific area of research. You will learn to map the wider context of your field, uncover key influences and connections, and identify strategic opportunities to drive positive change through your work —rather than simply assuming there is one path-dependent future that will unfold regardless.

After completing this workshop, you will:

  • Know how to use the megatrend map to anticipate changes and opportunities in your scientific field.
  • Have a more holistic understanding of your research area by adopting a systems-thinking view of key actors, resources, and interconnections.
  • Identify actionable approaches to innovate within your discipline by leveraging interconnections with the broader system, enabling you to shape future outcomes.
