Добро пожаловать в ООН!
The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), through its Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG), in collaboration with the Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA), will convene a one-day introductory workshop for MMA technical staff to introduce core strategic forsight concepts and apply them to Maldives-relevant use cases. It will provide a shared language, two practical methods, and short scenario briefs with early indicators and immediate, low-cost steps for monetary policy, financial stability, payments continuity, and externalvulnerability management. The aim is not prediction, but option-ready decisions across several credible futures.
The objectives are to:
• Build a shared understanding of strategic foresight for central banking.
• Practice two core tools (Futures Triangle and rapid Scenario Planning) on MMA-relevant themes.
• Identify key drivers and critical uncertainties for Maldives over the next 5-10 years.
• Draft a small set of plausible scenarios and note immediate implications for monetary policy, financial stability, and payments oversight.
• Identify 2–3 practical next steps per team (signals to watch, quick analyses, or small tests) to fold into existing MMA workflows.
