On March 1, 2024, World Futures Day, the Singapore Hub launched its Hub and its first Teach the Future event simultaneously by participating in World Futures Day - Young Voices 2024.
It is very exciting to see participation from this progressive city and its efforts in increasing foresight literacy through the many activities in their country. Singapore Hub’s conversation topics for World Futures Day virtual event ranged widely from reimagining the futures of ageing, education and the oceans.
This new Hub is co-founded by Jawn Lim, Carol Lim (no relation), Nadya Patel and Cesar Jung-Harada. They look forward to growing support through both activities and partners, and collaborating with other Teach the Hub founders to promote the multinational, multicultural exchange of futures perspectives.
As a community, they are dedicated to promoting Futures Literacy.
“Our hope is that students of all ages are empowered to navigate a changing world with the creative confidence to design desirable futures for themselves and their communities.” —Jawn Lim, Carol Lim, Nadya Patel, Cesar Jung-Harada
Included as partners in this Teach the Future Hub and social enterprises Praxium and Crater, as well as community organisations Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan and Speculative Futures Singapore Chapter.
