I facilitate reflection processes to enhance research and decision-making. Solid analysis aiming at policy recommendations does not only require profound background knowledge, but also needs to incorporate current trends and the possibility of surprising events. Therefore, I employ the scenario technique as a powerful anticipatory tool in order to detect risks and opportunities of a influenceable future regardless of these known uncertainties. A carefully chosen combination of methods is used to achieve your goals, be it the identification of courses of action, the publication of policy recommendations or the launch of a wide public debate. This is how to navigate you on the basis of your expertise through the uncertainties of an open future.

I would be delighted to attend you on this voyage. The following projects reflect possible outcomes.
