The world is in transition, accelerated by the impacts of climate change, the effects of the pandemic and the growth of inequalities worldwide. What risks and opportunities are surfacing? What issues warrant greater attention?

SEI researchers from our 8 offices on 4 continents have identified key trends affecting the transition of communities, societies, technologies, the private sector, public policymaking, and international relations.

Join the event as experts from different continents offer their perspectives on key trends for 2022 and beyond.
