Note: There will be no
Accelerating Change conference for 2008. ASF projects
for 2008:
1. Want to find good online foresight
community? Visit Global
Futures Network, a wiki directory (people, orgs,
resources) for the world's emerging futures community, for a list
of the best of online networks and resources for future-thinkers.
Help build global foresight culture today!
2. Like to meet other foresighted
folks in your local community? Start a Future
Salon, on your own or with a co-moderator. Invite
interesting local thinkers to give free talks on future-oriented
topics once a month (or less), and go to dinner afterward for
more conversation. Grow your network of change- and innovation-oriented
friends!
3. Interested in higher education
in Futures Studies? See Futures
Studies - Programs and Resources, ASF's list of ten
Primary and forty-one Secondary graduate programs in futures studies.
Consider these if you want interdisciplinary training in thinking
about accelerating change.
4. Are you a futures educator or
researcher? Join Futures
Education and Research Network (FERN), our social
network for people who teach foresight in any environment (K-12,
university, professional), and who want to share open-source futures
course materials, practices, and provide mutual support (see Foresight
Development for one such open-source, CC-licensed
course).
5. Can ASF help your organization?
Contact us
if you'd like talks or workshops,
