School of International Futures (SOIF)

The School of Internationals Futures (SOIF) is a not-for-profit consultancy. We exist to help you and your organisation navigate uncertainty and make resilient and better decision in an increasingly uncertain and complex world. There has never been a greater need for long-term thinking. In an increasingly uncertain and volatile world, School of International Futures exists to help organisations use foresight to impact decision-making today. We can help you think differently – and confidently – about the future, and to develop the skills and insight you need to impact decision-making today. Foresight is not about predicting the future, but understanding your current and future operating environment. Insights gained from foresight equip organisations to recognise and respond to emerging threats and opportunities by developing enhanced competitiveness, resilience and agility. For foresight to have impact, it needs to be conceived from the outset with the decision-maker, policy-maker, or other client of the work in mind. SOIF's practical four-stage approach – Scoping, Ordering uncertainty, Implications and Integrating Futures – and learning journey helps us design and teach foresight that can be used to impact decision-making today.
