REUNIR Project | Expert Insights Series, 2nd Mid-Term Conference Highlights
As part of our expert video series from the REUNIR Mid-Term Conference in Tbilisi, Georgia, we feature a contribution from Oleh Sabura, Senior Analyst at the School for Policy Analysis NaUKMA , who reflects on the question:
What role can academic foresight play in policymaking during wartime recovery and EU integration in Ukraine?
He emphasizes that while the future cannot be predicted, academic foresight helps policymakers explore different scenarios, both positive and catastrophic to assess risks and build evidence-based strategies for recovery and EU integration.
In Ukraine’s case, the stakes are existential. The worst-case scenarios, highlight just how crucial forward-looking analysis is for shaping effective, resilient policy.
Foresight is not just about planning for the best, but ensuring there’s a path forward even through the most difficult outcomes.
