Ultimate aims
Origin: Lat. finalĭtas, -ātis meta
Components of the prospective vision, the purposes are desirable general goals, which are perceived as capable of being achieved in the long term and which will be tried to translate into strategic axes. Within the framework of a strategic process, they contribute to the constitution of strategic orientations. The concept of purpose is more ambitious than the terms “objective” or “goal”. These are vectors of human action, individual or collective. Foresight also seeks to understand who the actors are and what their purposes of action are.
Spanish: Finalidades
