2017 Trendspotting Series

Edited by Jesse Salazar

The 2017 Trendspotting Series showcases big ideas that will shape the world in 2017. The Council invited important thinkers from a dozen fields to contribute their predictions on what lies ahead, and we invite you to read this collection of blog posts about trends affecting some major fields of interest that will in turn impact the philanthropic community.

We want to hear from you about these trends. Do you agree with the author’s projections? Have they missed something? Please comment on the pieces and share your thoughts about the authors’ forecasts.

If after reading this series you think we missed something important or going forward you start to see new trends in these or other fields, please share them with us. You can tweet an idea to us at @COF_, start a conversation on the Philanthropy Exchange, or submit a blog post to join our collection.
