About World Future Day

World Futures Day originated in 2014 as a 24-hour global conversation initiated by the Millennium Project. Building upon the Future Day celebration launched by Humanity+ 12 years ago, this event brings together experts, professionals, and enthusiasts from around the world to discuss the future. In collaboration with the Association of Professional Futurists (APF), Humanity+, and the World Futures Studies Federation (WFSF), the Millennium Project continues to host this inclusive conversation, ensuring that voices of all ages and backgrounds contribute to shaping our collective understanding of what lies ahead.
