The Alternative Planetary Futures Institute (Ap-Fi) conducts horizon scanning, foresight research, and advocacy centered on planetary consciousness. 

This is accomplished under the leadership of our world-class scientific council and by the contribution of a volunteer planetary creative council (groups of individuals and organizations) around the world that connect planetary views and futures research to help expand imagination about the possible futures and build preferred futures. 

What we do and support:

• Networking among authors, artists, researchers, educators and scholars to think together about the planetary futures.

• Designing, developing and using frameworks for the planetary identity, the technological progress, and the scientific worldview.

• Providing inclusive and participatory systems to measure positive planetary change.

• Collecting resources, books and media that primarily explore the planetary futures.

The Millennium Project is a global participatory think tank established in 1996 under the American Council for the United Nations University. We became an independent non-profit in 2009 and we now have 72 Nodes (a group of institutions and individuals that connect local and global perspectives) around the world.

Purpose: Improve humanity’s prospects for building a better future.

Mission: Improve thinking about the future and make that thinking available
through a variety of media for feedback to accumulate wisdom about the future for better decisions today.

Vision: A global foresight network of Nodes, information, and software, building a global collective intelligence system recognized for its ability to improve prospects for humanity. A think tank on behalf of humanity, not on behalf of a government, or an issue, or an ideology, but on behalf of building a better future for all of us.

The Institute for AI Policy and Strategy (IAPS) is a think tank of aspiring wonks working to understand and navigate the transformative potential of advanced AI. Our mission is to identify and promote strategies that maximize the benefits of AI for society and develop thoughtful solutions to minimize its risks.

We aim to be humble yet purposeful: we’re all having to learn about AI very fast, and we’d love it if you could join us in figuring out what the future holds together.
