What is Megatrend?
The concept of "Megatrends" is researched and conceptualized by the Finnish National Think Tank Center. It encompasses over 50 potential future scenarios, outlining various possible trajectories for the world ahead. Our team primarily focuses on in-depth exploration of the content within these Megatrends, delving into why these trends are crucial for the future and what factors contribute to their significance.
We are dedicated to examining and understanding the details of these Megatrends, and subsequently translating our research findings into a comprehensive web page. Through this platform, we aim to bring the ideas proposed by the Finnish National Think Tank Center back to Taiwan, steering the course of future trends.

Redorm
Every year, there are furniture and items discarded due to dormitory relocations. Redorm aims to make students aware of the value and convenience of reusing the second-hand market. We intend to establish an on-campus platform for students to quickly exchange/ buy/ sell/reuse dormitory items, thereby creating a small-scale circular economy. This initiative aims to reduce significant resource waste.

We are...
We are university students engaged in researching "Shape the Future," and we've gathered at the Finnish Summer School for various reasons. Here, we're discussing the Megatrend Cards, future trend scenarios researched by Finland's Sitra National Think Tank. Our goal is to comprehend the imminent challenges and unstoppable developments we'll face in the near future. Through extensive discussions, our three groups are each formulating distinct action plans to resonate with the future described by the trend scenarios presented in the cards.
