Launch | Anticipatory Innovation Governance Model in Finland: Towards a New Way of Governing

Recorded on 3 November 2022

More than ever, policy environments are characterised by complex, uncertain, multi-causal contexts, where risk taking is limited and short-termism prevails. There is a need to introduce long-term perspectives and future-oriented decision making into policy and use strategic foresight to anticipate different futures.

The OECD has been working with the government of Finland and the European Commission to examine how the Finland’s governance processes and mechanisms need to be transformed to deal with complex and future challenges in a systemic manner. The work has created a blueprint to help governments incorporate anticipatory innovation functions within their governance system.

This webinar presents an overview of the work, and explores how anticipatory innovation governance can be made a reality in a range of countries.
