These scenarios collect up on the analysis of future visions of nanotechnology application, questions on acceptability and sustainability (cultural appropriation, societal implementation) and desirability (gender and values). The scenarios take an everyday life situation as a starting point to illustrate how nanotechnologies could be implanted in the future in health, food and energy.

The scenarios take the promise of the technology vision for granted. To introduce questions of desirability, sustainability and acceptability each of the scenarios play with how human, societal and cultural dynamics influence the way technologies become integrated in and part of people’s lives.

Use the booklet, the video clips or the posters (A0) with the scenarios, the technology vision it depicts, and the societal, cultural and value questions it tries to open up for discussion.
