The Population Health Information Research Infrastructure (PHIRI) on COVID-19 seeks to lay the foundation of a federated research infrastructure on population health to support research across Europe to underpin public health policy decisions in current and future pandemics or crises. Through Work Package 9 (WP9), PHIRI aims at gaining insights in possible future health impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak, by building capacity on foresight studies. A foresight study refers to a broad range of methodologies to describe possible futures. This report presents a brief overview of the results from Task 9.1. “Overview of current foresight activities in Europe and beyond”. This task was led by Universidade NOVA de Lisboa (DGS/UNL), in collaboration with other task Partners: National Institute for Public Health and the Environment in the Netherlands (RIVM), Austrian Public Health Institute (GÖG), and the Croatian Institute of Public Health (CIPH). This report aims to present a general mapping of foresight studies in Europe, but also includes international studies and studies from other non-European countries.
