A Futures-Thinking Toolkit
Making the Just Transition Happen: A Futures-Thinking Toolkit for Youth to Use with Their Communities
To help you to imagine and explore green, clean and fair futures for all, so that you can help your communities turn ideas into action today, and make the Just Transition a reality, this toolkit has been created.
This toolkit is for young people, youth workers, educators, community engagement leads and facilitators, who want to explore how they can be active in enabling the just transition to green, clean and fair futures for all.
You DO NOT need to be an expert in economics, climate, policy or futures-thinking. You DO NOT need to have the right answers. What you DO need is curiosity, openness and a willingness to imagine together and collaborate.
This toolkit is designed to be practical, participatory and adapted to your communities. You can use it in informal gatherings, a community of practice, classrooms and groups. It works best when everyone is able to bring their cultural heritage, knowledge and lived experiences, challenging assumptions about dominant knowledge and making space for critical and creative thinking. This deeply aligns the toolkit and participation with multicultural and intercultural dialogue that builds core democratic competences.
