Foresight session is an innovative tool for modeling the future. We want to show what modern young people dream about and how they imagine the world they will live in when they become adults.
The participants worked on their projects for the future, breaking up into teams of 5 people. So, what did schoolchildren and students of secondary vocational education dream about at the KBSU Boiling Point? It is about the appearance of underwater highways, air taxis on eco-friendly fuel in the near future, so that every person has robotic assistants, and that one can live on Mars and the Moon and space flights become commonplace. With regard to education, it should be free of charge, both school and university. And after the 9th grade, it was possible to study school subjects of choice. By the way, according to schoolchildren, teachers should be replaced by robots. Robots will also be widely used in the service sector. The world is also waiting for an architectural explosion and an unheard-of breakthrough in medicine. Moreover, mortality during operations will decrease significantly, since robots will also perform them. And so on and so forth.
At the end of the session, each of the teams presented the results of their work and received diplomas of foresight participants from the University of the National Technology Initiative 2035.
All performances were broadcast on the YouTube platform. After watching the video content, the «Business Alliance» team will be able to determine the winners of the «Image of the Future Z» foresight session, who will go to the «Archipelago 2021» competition in Nizhny Novgorod.
