Foundation For the Future 10th Anniversary

The Foundation’s 10th Anniversary Edition of Where Does Humanity Go from Here? is a 22-minute video featuring many scholar insights and all major activities of the Foundation in its first 10 years of operation. Foundation officers speak on camera about the goals and intentions of the programs now in existence and plans for the future.

 

 

Where Does Humanity Go from Here?

This 13-minute video synopsizes the Foundation’s work with leading scientists, academicians, philosophers, and futurists in discussion about humanity’s long-term future. Numerous scholars from around the world offer insights into present-day situations and implications for the thousand-year future of our species and Planet Earth.

 

 

Cosmic Origins: From Big Bang to Humankind

This 15-minute film, depicting the evolution of the cosmos and of life on Earth, is a production by the Palfreman Film Group in conjunction with The Wright Center for Science Education at Tufts University and the Foundation For the Future. It has been distributed in video format to thousands of classrooms across the United States.
