Fringe planning is a long-term planning process that considers potential future events and outcomes that are outside the mainstream or considered unlikely. The Fringe Planner 2025 is a specific example of a fringe planning exercise that was conducted in 2021 to identify and assess potential future events and outcomes up to the year 2025.
Fringe planning is important because it can help organizations and individuals to identify and prepare for potential future challenges and opportunities that may not be immediately apparent. By considering a wide range of possible future scenarios, fringe planning can help to reduce uncertainty and increase resilience.
