The World Futures Studies Federation (WFSF) is an independent global peak body for futures studies scholarship, founded in Paris in 1973. As a UNESCO partner, WFSF brings together academics, researchers, practitioners, students, and futures-focused institutions from over 60 countries, offering a forum for the exchange of ideas, visions, and plans for alternative futures through long-term, big-picture thinking and radical change.
With a current president based in Norway and Germany, WFSF is actively involved in various activities such as organizing conferences, regional meetings, and providing accreditation services. They also publish resources including books, journals, and monographs, fostering communication through magazines, newsletters, and multimedia platforms. WFSF's mission is to stimulate, explore, and shape the future by promoting futures studies education and facilitating global collaboration in the field.
