It's probably best to get started as soon as possible, laying out the problem in all its complexity and mapping out some strategies for tackling it.

Outline
• Structures and projects
• Research findings
• KM - a key component
• Conclusions
The recent publication of the Handbook of Knowledge Society Foresight adds a powerful guidance for foresight exercises in Europe. The establishment of the Foresight Unit has been emphasised in the book as one of subjects serving as a possible repository of knowledge and agent for training and advice. It may organise small-scale foresight exercises and provide training activities for particular sets of users. The Unit can support network activities, organise meetings of stakeholders, "to maintain Foresight activities in a given community" in the long run. (37)

The Unit can support network activities, organise meetings of stakeholders, "to maintain Foresight activities in a given community" in the long run. (37) The paper, included in this collection of articles on Latvia's future, provides insight into activities performed by the Forward Studies Unit (38) affiliated to the Latvian Union of Scientists. In February 2003, the Board of the LUS adopted the programme proposal of its members to establish the Forward Studies Unit, to start futures studies and foresight activities and to become involved in European research. Since its beginning, the Forward Studies Unit, LUS has been, in fact, a community of practice conducting studies, publications, and dissemination of information free of charge.http://www.geocities.com/forwardstudies/projects3/foresight.html

Maz izredžu realizēt Lisabonas stratēģiju, ja tas darbs tiks atstāts tikai Valdību ziņā Norises pasaulē rāda, ka daudzviet un t.sk. mūsu kaimiņzemē Somijā,
"foresight" metode ir palīdzējusi iesaistīt, mobilizēt institūcijas, intelektuālo kapacitāti un resursus. Tas ir tas, kas Latvijai patlaban visvairāk ir vajadzīgs.

Knowledge is a fluid mix of framed expertise, values, contextual information and expert insight that provides a framework for evaluating and incorporating new experiences and information.
It originates from and is applied in the minds of knowers. In organisations it often becomes embedded not only in documents or repositories but also in organisational routines, processes, practices and norms.

On a such foundation as EFB, developing KSF outputs, activities and targets,
we create the new virtual entity • process of interaction between individuals,
organizations, enterprises;• opportunities to develop communities of practice;• innovative application of the Basics framework for
thinking, knowledge (tacit and explicit) sharing, knowledge fusion and management aiming at possible futures for policies and strategies at all levels.

Workshop : main findings – KM is an imperative for foresight activities
"From “what a knowledge society is and why it is necessary”, towards how “how to become a knowledge society”, knowledge management is the foundation.
What should be included in the KM “to do” list:- To develop a vision and a strategy for a knowledge - based organization is a must.
- The mindset needs to be changed from managing information in the traditional way to the modern way which leads to effective knowledge management systems, namely, IT supported systems.
- It is pivotal to develop incentives and personal development opportunities for information management in an organization.
- To manage knowledge via networking."
