Innovation Summit 2024 - Alaska Futures Surveys and Scenarios

The Innovation Summit program this year is focused on the transformative impact of scenario planning to help us imagine and create the future Alaska we want. It is an interesting approach that isn’t based on getting to a preferred alternative but rather on seeing more clearly the many alternatives, some of which may develop in parallel with others. It is a different approach (exploratory scenarios) that you and others you know may find interesting.

We are asking for the input of Alaskans before the Summit to help us develop a set of draft scenarios that will be developed further at the Summit and then be available for additional development and projects through 2024.  Your participation will be valuable, and you will be registered to receive a copy of the report of the combined results of the surveys.

Initial results collected but open for input until 2/23 – Survey 1 – What is your Best and Worse futures for Alaska, and the issues and decisions that are critical to our future?  https://forms.gle/eA6ZMNdJk1vScqBH8 

Initial results collected but open for input until 2/23 – Survey 2 – What are the critical uncertainties (high impact and high degree of uncertainty), and who of the key actors that will affect the futures for our state? https://forms.gle/riJmjWfYFAMoHZ3e7    

ACTIVE – Survey 3 – Rank the combined issues, decisions, and uncertainties collected during the prior surveys. Results are requested by 2/20.   https://forms.gle/cnqaUz7eed5niyU19 

All surveys will remain open for input until February 23rd.
