"As the world becomes increasingly uncertain, it is vital today to link decisions to future consequences by adopting an ecosystemic approach and integrating machine intelligence. Thus, this conference, co-hosted by students from the MSc in International Strategy and Influence (ISI), will explore the future perspectives of humanity, business, and education," explains Christophe Bisson, director of the programme.
The WFSF advises the United Nations and UNESCO, and many of its members consult governments on these subjects.
