Forward Look Goals
• Forward Looks enable Europe’s scientific community, in interaction with policy makers, to develop medium to long-term views and analyses of future research developments with the aim of defining research agendas at national and European level.
• Forward Look reports and other outputs such as ESF Policy Briefings assist policy makers and researchers in defining optimal research agendas and in setting priorities.

Design Questions
What are the characteristics and dynamics of the field that is foresighted?
What is the main question or problem that makes a Forward Look needed or appropriate?
Can any sort of implementation of the results be expected and, if so, who should take care of the implementation?
What expertise is needed to discuss the developments in the field and to what extent are external perspectives needed?
What kind of specific interests or obstacles may be expected in the conduct of the foresight or in implementing the results?

Forward Look Report Design• State-of-the-Art review
– Current state of research in the area and highlights of the major advances in the last years
• Scientific challenges
– Impact of those advances on the research agenda
– Indication of major knowledge gaps and potential ‘hot topics’
– Identification of European strength and weakness
• Vision
– Presentation of a vision with major goals that could provide directions for research in the medium and long term time frame
– Implementation plan (in terms of infrastructure, institutional innovation, human resources, governance)
• Impact and Follow-up
– Key stakeholders likely to play a key role in the implementation
– Targeted recommendations
– Follow-up mechanism to ensure delivery and avoid risks

Key Actions for this meeting
• Review the current state of the art and recent important achievement in the respective fields
• Identify the open problems and, in particular, the hot topics
• Develop a strategy how best to tackle these open questions, experimentally as well as theoretically
• Indentify overlaps and synergies with other LRP2010 Themes
• European perspective and the corresponding worldwide context
• Start formulating recommendations and suggesting an action plan for the future.
• Finally, timing is key – To identify key events and actions to disseminate and publicise the results towards ESF Member Organisations, ESFRI, the European Commission, etc. and outside Europe (EU Presidency events, Political events, Large conferences,…)
