Exploratory Scenario Planning, Explained
Planners don't need fancy software to prepare for an uncertain future. Exploratory scenario planning promises a more aware, adaptive, and resilient planning profession.
A video by the Sonoran Institute and the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy explains how the exploratory scenario planning (XSP) helps city planners prepare for an uncertain future.
The video describes XSP as fast, low cost, no tech process, requiring no sophisticated modeling, expert knowledge, or expert staff. XSP allows plans that can adapt as the future unfolds.
The video also provides an example of XSP at work.
Hat tip to the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy for sharing the video.
