This is the 17thState of the
Future report produced by The Millennium Project – a global
participatory think tank with over 50 Nodes and about 5,000 participants around
the world. The Millennium Project is listed among the top ten think tanks
in the world for new idea/paradigm by the Go to Think Tank index of the
University of Pennsylvania and was selected by Computerworld as a laureate for
its innovations in collective intelligence systems.
Jerome Glenn, CEO, The Millennium Project,
Dennis Bushnell, Chief Scientist, NASA Langley Research Center, and Paul
Werbos, Program Director, National Science Foundation, will explore global
strategic prospects and strategies drawn from the 2013-14 State of the
Future report and the online Global Futures Intelligence System.
2013-14 State of the Future’s executive summary gives an
unparalleled overview of our current situation, prospects, and suggestions to
build a better future, plus an annual World Report Card of where we are winning
and losing, and the 2013 State of the Future Index. Chapter 1 on 15 Global
Challenges provides a framework for understanding global change. Other chapters
share international assessments of the causes of and solutions to the
increasing problem of hidden hunger; vulnerable natural infrastructure in urban
coastal zones; lone wolves and individuals making and deploying weapons of mass
destruction; a presentation of the Global Futures Intelligence System,
and some concluding thoughts.
Participants will have the opportunity to
discuss potential global trajectories and outlooks, and how the first global
collaborative futures intelligence evolves and functions.
