- 24hours, World Future Day
During the World Futures Day on March 1, The Millennium Project organizes a 24-hour around-the-world conversation for futurists and the public to discuss challenges and opportunities for building a better future for all. Beginning March 1 at 12 noon New Zealand time, the open conversation about the future moves west and lasts until 12 noon Hawaii time (GMT-10). Anyone can join the discussions at their noon time or when they can.
Partners of The Millennium Project for this ninth WFD edition are Humanity+, the World Academy of Art and Science (WAAS), the World Futures Studies Federation (WFSF), and the Association of Professional Futurists (APF).
Some of the main results of the 2021 World Future Day are now available in a short communication recently published by Futures. The short communication distills the main suggestions and solutions discussed during the 2021 WFD, setting a global agenda for further discussions.
The paper will be open for reading untile March 23 at the following link: https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1eWEH3jdJhAYq
