FORESIGHT ENVIRONMENT REPORT

The deliberations of the participants in the Foresight Environment Sector, using a
variety of techniques, including local and international scans, SWOT and STEEP
analyses, scenario building and a wide-ranging survey, resulted in the identification of themes as the priority areas to be considered for the next ten to 20 years. Appropriate investments in the key technology areas listed in each each theme could ensure that South Africa will be better placed to enhance her international competitiveness as well as her capacity for accelerated internal socio-economic development.
