Dr Wilfred Lunga has been announced as one of the esteemed experts selected to join the International Science Council and United Nations Environmental Program (ISC-UNEP) Foresight Expert Panel. This distinguished panel comprises world-renowned scientists dedicated to tackling climate change challenges head-on.

The Foresight Expert Panel assumes a pivotal role in shaping global environmental outcomes by providing invaluable guidance, facilitating evidence gathering, and fostering an inclusive and evidence-based process. Through their collective efforts, the panel ensures that the forthcoming Global Foresight report becomes a beacon of knowledge, guiding policy decisions, driving innovation, and paving the way for a sustainable and resilient future.

The culmination of the panel’s endeavours will be the publication of the Global Report in 2024. Anticipated to be a comprehensive compendium of insights and recommendations, the report will serve as a vital resource during the deliberations of the sixth UN Environment Assembly (UNEA-6) in February 2024 and the Summit of the Future.
