Foresight review: Transformation of the security environment

The Sitra’s foresight review examines the transformation of the international security environment from the perspective of Finland and Finnish society. This review presents insights from the first phase of a broader foresight project launched in May 2024. The phase is based on background interviews with 15 experts from various fields, a workshop with Sitra’s experts and a review of background literature.

The aim of this phase has been to identify the key developments in the transformation of the security environment and to outline a comprehensive view of these changes. The value of this review lies in examining these developments collectively and in relation to one another.

This is not a final report but an initial overview of the ongoing foresight work, intended to spark discussion. The review is aimed at decision-makers, organisations, businesses and individual citizens. Navigating the transformation of the security environment requires foresight capabilities as well as bold, constructive and inclusive discussions on security and the future.
