Chula Joins UNESCO High-Level Futures Literacy Summit

Unesco is promoting “Futures Literacy,” the skill that allows people to better understand the role of the future in what they see and do. Being futures literate empowers the imagination, enhances our ability to prepare, recover and invent as changes occur.

This summit provides testimonials from around the world on how a “futures literate” can change what people envision and innovate the present. The program includes Summit Plenary engaging in “future conversation” by world’s leaders, and Agora (virtual exhibition) from more than 50 leading institutions and Global Futures Literacy Network side-events online. Chulalongkorn University is proud to be the only institution that represents Thailand, and we partake in the Summit Plenary and showcase its flagship projects in Agora, aiming to reach out future collaborators and partnerships across the world.
