On Wednesday November 27, the World Future Council (WFC) will hold the Award Ceremony for the 2024 World Future Policy Award. Out of 12 inspiring finalists, the four winning policies will be announced and celebrated.
Each year, the World Future Policy Award highlights leading policies tackling critical issues for humanity and the planet. It focuses on solutions that are implemented and have demonstrated success. This year the topic is Peace and Future Generations.
With armed conflict and other violence raging around the world, causing immense suffering, it is important to highlight and learn from effective policies that are resolving conflicts and building a culture of peace for current and future generations,
