A few stories this morning about the Government's Horizon Scanning Centre. An interesting stab at Tomorrow's-Worlding by the Office of Science and Innovation, made more so by their appreciation of the limits of such exercises. In 2007, OSI have asked us, via the Sciencehorizons project, to generate real public engagment with these futures and the future. This paper puts the project in context. It explains the limits of prediction and the value of a wider view of the future.

We launch in January. The idea is that as many people as possible will hold as many discussions as possible, and feed back the results.
