In addition to fostering knowledge on the environmental and societal impacts of climate change, Futurs-ACT aims to develop anticipation science to explore the possible futures of different territories. To achieve that, the network contributes to the creation of research and research-action projects aimed at:

• Understanding impacts and their development into the future
• Co-creating climate change adaptation scenarios
• Exploring and experimenting with pathways to prepare desirable futures
• Promoting the inclusion of local stakeholders and interfacing between science and civil society in the process
• Facilitating changes of scale (from global forecasts to territorial foresight)
• Prioritising knowledge for action that can be acted upon by citizens, socio-economic stakeholders and public decision-makers
