‘Shocks to the System’: Fast Forward to 2028
In February, we teamed up with ClimateWorks to explore innovative ways to engage with risks and opportunities in what’s become known as the decade of disruption. The result is ‘Shocks to the System: Fast Forward to 2028’, a unique and immersive game that tests your decision-making skills based on future trends.
Dive into 'Shocks to the System' to challenge your assumptions about the future and how we can move towards more resilient, impactful climate philanthropy.
Casey Cronin, Elin Matsumae and Forum’s Futures Lead Alisha Bhagat share more on the what, why and how of Shocks to the System. Download the game and get in touch with Alisha to explore further opportunities.
