What’s it about?
Megatrends describe long-term, slowly evolving and often interconnected major phenomena that do not change overnight. Sitra’s megatrends review highlights these phenomena from a Finnish perspective. It is worth looking at megatrends together, because they are not isolated from one another but influence each other. The aim of the megatrend report is to give an overview of the trends affecting our future and thus enable different ways of thinking about and discussing the future and influencing it.
Megatrends do not make it possible to predict the future, but the megatrends review can serve as a tool and basis for discussion when looking at changes in the world around us, for example when making decisions, supporting learning, working on strategy or even framing a news story. Looking at megatrends benefits everyone, because the future belongs to us all.
