Drawing on fieldwork studies of a Norwegian municipal vision project conducted in 2006 it is shown how a specific image of young people was constructed

By creating a specific image of young people the project leadership resolved issues of stakeholder interests and futures literacy before they received their contributions.

To underline the importance of participation in the vision-building project, the project leadership drew upon a specific image of young people as stakeholders in municipal development.

however, shows that the collection of young people's contributions was preceded by the construction of a specific image of them as stakeholders.

This paper argues that constructing a specific image of young people as stakeholders points towards a dilemma of inclusive foresight that cannot be rectified by specific management and process principles.
