1 The First 100 Days of a FUTURE FOR EVERYONE Summary Report of Delphi Survey January
2 FUTURE FOR EVERYONE Introduction The 2016 election cycle challenges us all to rethink the future of our civic sphere and the tools, technologies, and processes we need to ensure a free and open society. The incoming administration has laid out a plan for its first 100 days. Shortly after the election, IFTF invited approximately 200 members of its foresight community academics, journalists, and community organizers to create its own blueprint for the first 100 days of the new administration. To create an agenda for action, we went back to our roots and used a modified Delphi method to survey these experts. A Delphi survey uses multiple rounds of questions and feedback to help the group reach a consensus. In Round 1 of this study, we asked participants to suggest the top five actions that we, as a community, could take in the first 100 days of this administration to support a free and open society. We collated the results of this round into 79 potential actions, organized into 13 zones of action. For Round 2, we asked the same set of participants to first rank the 13 zones of action and then rate each of the 79 actions for their potential impact. This report is a summary report of the results of this round. It includes: o The initial and final rankings of the 13 zones of action o A summary of the highest-ranking actions in each zone o An appendix with complete responses for all the actions CC BY-NC-ND Institute for the Future SR-1916B 2
3 FUTURE FOR EVERYONE Zones of Action Round 1 of the Delphi survey produced 13 zones of action. At the beginning of Round 2, expert participants in the study were asked to rank these zones from most important to least important, where 1 was the most important. At the conclusion of the survey, they were asked to rank them a second time, having evaluated the potential impact of the specific actions in each zone. The table below shows the initial ranking and the final ranking for all participants combined. Initial Ranking Final Ranking 1 Supporting a vital ecosystem of journalism and media 1 Supporting a vital ecosystem of journalists and media 2 Averting global warming 2 Fostering solidarity with vulnerable populations 3 Fostering solidarity with 3 Building civic engagement vulnerable populations 4 Reforming the electoral process 4 Averting global warming and supporting voter rights 5 Building civic engagement 5 Reforming the electoral process and supporting voter rights 6 Putting the legal system to work 6 Putting the legal system to work 7 Engaging in political advocacy 7 Engaging in political advocacy and and action action 8 Resisting normalization 8 Reimagining work and education 9 Cultivating new civic literacies 9 Resisting normalization 10 Nurturing a diversity of 10 Supporting alternative paths to perspectives social services 11 Reimagining work and education 11 Cultivating new civic literacies 12 Protecting privacy and cryptosecurity 13 Supporting alternative paths to social services 12 Protecting privacy and cryptosecurity 13 Nurturing a diversity of perspectives CC BY-NC-ND Institute for the Future SR-1916B 3
4 FUTURE FOR EVERYONE High-Impact Actions Within each action zone, experts were asked to rate several possible actions for their potential impact. The choices were low impact, measurable impact, or high impact. While nearly all actions received high-impact ratings from some of the experts, those listed here were rated high-impact by more than 50% of the respondents. For the complete list of actions and ratings, see the Appendix. Supporting a vital ecosystem of journalists and media Invent new business models for media and journalism to ensure a free press dedicated to transparency, accountability, and ground truth (60%) Figure out how to break the algorithms that are polarizing the public debate in order to deliver real news about Trump s failure to deliver on his promises to Trump supporters (53%) Create a distributed task force for investigative journalism to investigate Trump s investment/holdings/properties and trace how policy decisions may impact his businesses indirectly or by proxy (53%) Create an infrastructure to protect independent media and journalism, with social media layers for verification, investment platforms for investigative journalism networks, and tools for identifying bots and protecting against them (50.0%) Develop standards for truth/fact checking, hate speech, and algorithmic warning labels for search engines and social media to apply those standards (50%) Fostering solidarity with vulnerable populations If registries for Muslims and other vulnerable populations are established, create universal sanctuaries by registering everyone on them, not just targeted populations (71.4%) Pledge to protect vulnerable populations, especially witnessing and reporting hostile acts (61.5%) Engage in swift, decisive protests against the appointment of neo-nazi sympathizers to positions in the government (50%) CC BY-NC-ND Institute for the Future SR-1916B 4

7 FUTURE FOR EVERYONE Next Steps IFTF has already begun to pursue the first action zone identified in this study. From January 10-12, 2017, in partnership with the Skoll Foundation and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), we convened journalists from around the world who risk their lives every day analyzing the multi-trillion dollar criminal economy to uncover global corruption. This group of journalists, along with experts in media, academia, policy, and technology, participated in the conversation to explore The Future of Democracy: Preserving A Vibrant Civic Media. The result will be a public roadmap of initiatives to preserve an open civic dialogue and strengthen democracy for everyone. CC BY-NC-ND Institute for the Future SR-1916B 7
