What if the world was suddenly led by a 15-year-old visionary—or an asteroid reshaped everything we know? These provocations capture the spirit of the #DreamsandDisruptions foresight game hosted by the Canadian Foresight Network, where we explored how futures emerge in the most unexpected ways.

The Center for Engaged Foresight, together with partners in the Futurists Circle, is proud to announce the release of the Mandarin Edition of the Dreams & Disruptions Game is now available in the Philippines. This milestone expands access to one of futures studies widely used foresight games for classrooms, communities, and policy labs.

Foresight, then, is not a luxury—it is an antidote to bureaucratic stagnation. In this context, wild imagination is not escapism—it is strategy. It is the capacity to stretch the boundaries of the possible so that governance does not become governance of the dead: emotionally dead, spiritually disengaged, ecologically disconnected.

Games are platform for testing new ideas, upcoming technologies, and cultural beliefs serving as a gateway to tomorrow's possibilities.

We recently had an exciting session on Dreams and Disruptions Game at the Foresight Europe Network Demo Hour.

The game employs an innovative method integrating aspirational futures (dreams) and potential crises (disruptions).

Set in 2034, a preferred future scenario unfolds, featuring driving forces of change such as deepfakes, sentient AI, and mental health.
