 VUCA
In relation to Social Issues

• The nature of a VUCA environment may cause some social issues to escalate
• The stress in a VUCA environment may cause individuals to be more violent, causing abuse-related issues
to be more prevalent
• The ambiguity in a VUCA environment may cause people to make assumptions, specifically about other
people. Lack of information will also allow government officials to get away with their acts of corruption.
• The unstable nature of a VUCA environment may cause economic instability.
• The lack of security in a VUCA environment may cause individuals to feel hopeless.
• In such an environment, we must learn to adapt to the many challenges it presents. We should embrace
change and uncertainty as opportunities for growth and progress rather than insurmountable Obstacles

Summary
Social issues encompass problems that
significantly impact individuals and
V U
communities within a society, often sparking
disagreements about their origins, resolutions,
or nature. In a VUCA world, marked by

C A
Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and
Ambiguity, some social issues can intensify,
and we must learn to adapt.
