Summary
The Alternative Planetary Futures Institute (Ap-Fi) conducts horizon scanning, foresight research, and advocacy centered on planetary consciousness.
This is accomplished under the leadership of our world-class scientific council and by the contribution of a volunteer planetary creative council (groups of individuals and organizations) around the world that connect planetary views and futures research to help expand imagination about the possible futures and build preferred futures.
What we do and support:
Networking among authors, artists, researchers, educators and scholars to think together about the planetary futures.
Designing, developing and using frameworks for the planetary identity, the technological progress, and the scientific worldview.
Providing inclusive and participatory systems to measure positive planetary change.
Collecting resources, books and media that primarily explore the planetary futures.

About
Mission & Advocacy
We call ourselves Terran—people who see Earth as one shared home. Like astronauts who experience the Overview Effect, we believe looking at our planet as a whole can inspire unity and responsibility for its future. We explore this big idea and gather the best books, articles, videos, and facilitate networking and synergies among experts who share this vision.
We are committed to non-partisan and non-discriminatory liberty of inquiry.
Our Key Values are: Beauty, Fairness, Compassion, and Endurance.
