The European Commission's Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content and Technologies (DG CONNECT) launched the Digital Futures foresight project to prepare for reflections on ICT-related policies beyond 2020. The project's most distinctive feature is the grassroots involvement of stakeholders to define long-term visions (around 2040-50), anticipate possible challenges and opportunities and generate ideas to inform the policy reflections that will take place in 2014 around the renewal of the European Parliament and the Commission, and after. This process is centralized on this online platform which has been called Futurium. Stakeholders use Futurium to co-create the visions and policy ideas that matter to them and attach scientific evidence to these through a library of relevant references. A series of online webinars has also been launched in order to further stimulate the discussion on future visions and policy ideas. |
