Health Futures Lab

No single organization can solve the complex challenges facing the world today, particularly in the fields of health and health care. At IFTF, we bring together a wide variety of stakeholders—from health care to food and retail—to work toward more resilient responses for the complex challenges facing global health.

IFTF's research has brought futures thinking to the world of health and health care by looking for unexpected connections across this variety of stakeholders for more than 30 years.

Our health research explores the social, scientific, economic, and technological forces affecting health and grounds them with a deep understanding of the lives of individuals and families. By sensing connections between large-scale change and individual lives, we help organizations develop strategic insights and long-range initiatives to transcend boundaries and create person-centered approaches to supporting health and well-being.
