While the aim of this report is to offer a comprehensive set of relevant and achievable measures, it is important to recognize that there is no single blueprint for strategic youth integration. Each institution and initiative can identify unique gaps in their own domains where youth perspectives can add significant value. At the World Economic Forum, flagship programmes such as the Future50 Initiative by the Global Foresight Network, are equipping emerging leaders with the skills, networks and influence necessary to embed long-term, intergenerational perspectives into decision-making.In addition, the Forum’s Network of Global Future Councils (GFCs), which serves as a leading multistakeholder and interdisciplinary knowledge platform, has onboarded 15 young experts and youth advocates for the 2025-2026 term. These initiatives are not designed out of tokenistic inclusion goals; they are designed to ensure that intergenerational insights are embedded in the Forum’s approach towards future-proofing. The core premise underpinning Future50 is the concept of intergenerational foresight, an idea that we developed to challenge the status quo of who gets to design the future. Intergenerational foresight refuses the comfort of tokenism. It expands authorship across generations and geographies, dismantling inherited monopolies on imagination to replace representation with co-creation, and prediction with plurality.
