Repositioning People in Creative Futures: A Method to Create Sound Advice with Exploratory Scenarios by Guillermo Velasco, Rafael Popper, Ian Miles

“…Repositioning is the process whereby participants are invited to imagine themselves playing roles in hypothetical future contexts, and on that basis to make decisions or devise strategies as if they actually were immersed in these circumstances. The method proposed and the findings of the case study have implications for why and how this future repositioning approach can be incorporated as a ‘key feature’ in the design of Foresight activities. …”
