The success of a scenario or set of scenarios is not evaluated by observing whether or not these situations occur in the future, but rather on whether it or they positively influence the strategies and choices of today. Sometimes the most significant scenario is, in hindsight, the one we manage to avoid. In developing scenarios, we create a common language that allows us to talk about the challenges of the present and the future. Based on this conversation, we can make choices and form strategic alliances that allow us to promote the future reality that we desire.
For these scenarios to be useful, it is essential for people to reflect on and talk about them. This reflection may be individual or collective, face-to-face or virtual. We hope that this collective exercise will contribute to enriching and stimulating public debate in different forums – from schools and communities to society at large – about Basic Education in Brazil that go beyond the issues, possibilities, and even beyond the scenarios drafted by this group of people at this time in the country.
