| dc.description | This workshop report has been produced as part of the UN Environment’s sixth Global Environment Outlook (GEO-6) process and the development of the Innovative Outlooks section of the forthcoming assessment. The following report summarizes the outcomes and deliberations of participants in the first of a series of stakeholder visioning workshops to elicit and explore innovative ideas (or ‘seeds of change’) that stakeholders believe could lead to positive futures and help realize the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Building on the “Seeds of Good Anthropocenes” initiative , the basic concept was to identify a suite of complimentary existing initiatives (social, technological, economic or otherwise) that are not yet widespread or well-known, that together, provide elements with which to envision alternative scenarios. The ideas and discussions generated from the interactive exercise described here will provide input into the sixth Global Environment Outlook narrative on outlooks and the assessment of target-seeking pathways. The experience of the workshop will also inform ongoing work on new ways to approach scenario analysis in global environmental assessments including future Global Environment Outlook processes. The workshop took place in Bangkok, Thailand on May 25, 2017 during the global Second Authors’ meeting of the Global Environment Outlook and involved 21 participants comprised largely of the youth stakeholders segment . | en_US |
