In the previous stage, data is collected, considering multiple perspectives and possible scenarios. Discussions and roundtables with experts and stakeholders are organized to discuss preliminary findings. The result of this process is the production of reports that include analysis and recommendations.
The reports are published and discussed through conferences, seminars, and the media. This fosters an informed public dialogue about the impact of technology on society.
