Integrating Foresight Methodologies into National Health Policy Frameworks for Future Shock Preparedness
Health systems face increasing volatility from emerging global health shocks and systemic crises. This research explores how structured foresight approaches can be embedded into policy-making cycles to improve long-term resilience.
How can foresight methodologies be effectively integrated into national health policy-making to enhance systemic resilience against future health shocks?
Knowledge gap
What remains worth asking
The source suggests that while foresight is valuable, it remains useful to test how specific institutional mechanisms can bridge the gap between long-term scenario planning and immediate policy implementation.
Potential contribution
Why it may matter
Effective integration of foresight into health policy could significantly reduce the societal and economic costs of future health crises.
