Who we are

"FutuRes - Towards a Resilient Future of Europe" is a collaborative research project and policy lab. The FutuRes project wants to help Europe face the future with confidence. We investigate resilience by combining population data analysis, foresight and transdisciplinary exchange.

The FutuRes consortium is formed by eight European partner institutions. Our researchers are leading demographers, economists and social scientists. They are joined by experts who specialise in communication with policymakers and civil society.

FutuRes is funded by the EU, in the "Horizon Europe Research and Innovation" programme from 2023 to 2026.
