Future of Land Use With all the challenges on the horizon, we are pleased to be exploring the future of land use via another Open Foresight major project kicking off in October and running through until next summer. Addressing pivotal issues from food production, soil quality, water scarcity and biosphere protection to urbanisation, leisure use and land ownership, this global collaborative project is focused on the critical issues and potential solutions for the future. Undertaken in collaboration with a wide range of major organisations, including the WWF as our global knowledge partner, the locations and schedule for the programme are now being detailed. This is the project overview. If you would like to be involved in this major and important topic and host one or more of the expert workshops around the world, do let us know.

3. THE FUTURE OF LAND USE

4. Multiple Different Views
Given the pressures, there are multiple views of how we should plan the future of land use
and respond accordingly. These include managing growth across areas such as
urbanisation, population and food production while also protecting the biosphere.

5. Project Focus
The Future of Land Use project is exploring how the emerging changes to land use
practices will impact across the spectrum globally – including how land is used, what we
eat, where and how we live as well as the quality of our lives within a global ecosystem.
