Restoring the iDentity A Future Trends Project by Group 11-25 Ryan Yeo 2i127 (L) Lee Cheok Feng 2i112 (M) Marcus Lim 2i115 (M) Web Report URL: http://restoringtheidentity.wikispaces.com/
Fundamental Problem • Given that the scenario states that relationships in the year 2047 are poor, leading to selfishness as well as a cold society, it could be a problem for the people in 2047 as society will become a place where hardly anybody cares for one another or is able to communicate with each other properly on a face-to-face basis. How might we improve relationships between friends, families and colleagues such that society becomes a much friendlier place in the year 2047?
Our Best Solution • The Members of Parliament in the different constituencies will organize goal setting events for the community. These events will occur all around the world by the year 2015. This will be done through goal setting events that encourage people to share their goals for the community. People will then realise that their community members have much in common and new friends can be made. This will allow the community to get together and aim to achieve set targets as a whole. People can bond with each other and relationships are improved.

Our Action Plan • Study by Michigan State University • People were divided into groups and told to exercise. • One group exercised alone, while the other group was told that someone else would exercise with them elsewhere. • The group which believed they exercised with someone exercised more than the group that exercised alone.
Our Action Plan • Do these events really help to get people together? • Dr Andrew Larkin: "social engagement… can create awareness of difference and break down barriers for individuals and communities” • Amazing Goals Event can get communities involved and build closer bonds.
