Public Health Foresight Studies’ Training

Would you like to understand and learn more about the future of Public Health in the EU?  Do you want to learn about foresight studies and how to develop future scenarios for your own country?

Within the PHIRI project, we offer a course for all Member States to develop foresight capacity and to receive assistance in developing future scenarios. The objective of this course is to provide participants with tools and opportunities for discussion by levelling all (interested) EU countries to a similar degree of knowledge. We build on the foresight experience of all Member States and learn from existing foresight initiatives. Experienced lecturers will guide you through the basics of doing a foresight study in the field of public health. The course consists of lectures, exercises, inspiring examples and interactive discussions. Please find more information about the course in the Booklet ‘Public Health Foresight Studies’ Training
