=====Methods=====
The CSF employs a variety of research methods to identify emerging strategic issues. These include expert interviews, workshops with academics, inter-agency discussions, and crowdsourcing ideas. The process involves filtering a database of ideas to prioritize issues based on their impact on public policy and the government's preparedness to address them. The top issues are then communicated through briefings, workshops, and a set of Future Deck cards to facilitate discussions and inspire policy reviews.  \\
