Calling Up Justice and the Mosaic Project were exploring this great framework for imaging social change. Three Horizons is a simple and intuitive tool for thinking about the future. It helps groups explore systemic patterns to identify which of the dominant patterns are no longer fit for purpose, how the emerging trends can shape the future, and what visionary action is needed to collectively move us towards a viable future. How can we reimagine what is possible in philanthropy while maintaining functioning systems?

The future can be perceived through three lenses:

Horizon 1: Continue Business as Usual

Horizon 3: Vision of a Viable Future

Horizon 2: Innovation towards the Vision
