All-Party Parliamentary Group For Future Generations

Political short-termism is a well-known issue. Long-term issues – like climate change, public health trends, catastrophic risks and emerging technologies – are often neglected from the political agenda in favour of urgent matters. However, it is vitally important for our children's children (and beyond) that Parliament and the public sector use proper foresight and decision making processes to address future issues and risks. The APPG for Future Generations aims to create space for cross-party dialogue on combating short-termism and to identify ways to internalise longer-term considerations into today's policy decision making. It was set up in October 2017 and since then it has provided support to Parliamentarians across the political spectrum. A list of Parliamentarian members is available on the website: https://www.
