To develop an Exploratory Scenario exercise w ith university students living in the city of Puerto Maldonado (Madre de Dios, Peru) in or der to understand their opinions about the future of the region, focussing particularly on the construction of the Brazil-Peru inter-oceanic highway. The information gathered in this workshop will be used to create materials for distribution to the general public and will be given to the main institutions in the region. This will allow us to understand the points of view of the youth of Madre de Dios which can then be taken into account in the actions taken by the local institu tions. Furthermore, the experience of applying the Future Scenarios methodology will allow us to create academic materials (a methodology manual) that will be used in uni versity courses in the region.
