- Introduce yourselfIn WelcomeJanuary 25, 2022Hello, I am Kerstin Cuhls, Foresighter at the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research in Karlsruhe, Germany, already there for a long time. I am convinced that we need the long-term view to understand the present, our different opportunities and alternatives, and then to decide on a better informed way or create a "more desirable" future. I am also teaching combinations with Foresight at the University of Heidelberg (East Asian Studies, especially Japanese Studies), methods at the Free University of Berlin (Master Studies Futures Research) or at the BAKS (Bundesakademie für Sicherheitspolitik). There is still a lot to learn, to talk about and to do.32
