1. Drivers of Global Change
What important uncertainties about how the world could change in the coming 10-15 years could be most relevant for the future of global collaboration and the OECD’s role within it (e.g. extent of possible US/China decoupling; inequality; severity of environmental emergencies, emerging global threats, etc.)?
Are there uncertainties or disruptions currently “under the radar” that are not being adequately considered or prepared for by the international community in general, and the OECD and its members in particular?
2. Scenarios and Considerations
What implications and considerations could each of the three scenarios presented for the world in 2035 raise for the future of global collaboration and for the OECD?
Taken together, what considerations do the three scenarios (and others) raise for the OECD’s future purpose, values, relationships, and operations?
What steps might the OECD need to begin taking now to be better prepared to serve the global community under these (and other) potential future scenarios, and under ongoing future uncertainty?
