Working with Future Generations Cymru

Introduction

Working with us

Our top mission as the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales and team Future Generations Cymru is to make the Well-being of Future Generations Act (WFGA) work harder.

Our strategy, Cymru Can, sets out our vision and purpose, and outlines five missions we’re putting our energy behind from now until 2030. Cymru Can go further and we’re working with others to create the urgent change needed for Cymru to be a better place to live, with a bright and optimistic future – thriving, inclusive and green.

Though the WFGA covers public bodies, all across Wales, organisations and individuals are dedicated to improving the well-being of future generations. We’re a small team and Cymru Can needs the efforts of everyone with an interest in a good future.

You can get in touch, share your examples of change and ideas for collaboration at contactus@futuregenerations.wales.
