Abstract

The Centre for Military and Veterans’ Health, Australia undertook a horizon scanning process to identify issues in military and veterans’ health services delivery for a series of future scenario workshops. Application of a critical futures framework, Causal Layered Analysis and the futures triangle, produced a novel matrix which enabled a deeper and more critical review of factors across all content areas.
