Welcome in the World of Tomorrow

Looking into the future has always been a challenge but a challenge necessary for any planning purposes in policy, business and social or ecosystem development activities.

The difficulty of the challenge is demonstrated by the many tools that have been developed for providing forecasting support.

This tool provides an overview on the range of tools, outlines their specifics and supports the selection of the most appropriate tool for any specific forecasting situation.

Focus

The support is provided with a view on food security and biodiversity but its use is not limited to this specific focus. The tool is complemented by an overview on suitable statistical databases that might be used by the tools that depend on data availability. The present database overview is linked to the focus area of the tool but other databases will be added in due time.
