INDIVIDUAL WFSF MEMBERS

Includes Fellows, Individual members, Associate members and Student members. Our institutional members and their representatives are listed separately in a subsequent page. All photos below are from NASA satellite images of the earth at night. The images provide a fascinating depiction of the proportional distribution of the use of electric lights at night across the globe - of major significance in relation to global futures of energy and resources.  

Africa

Africa is UNESCO's highest priority. WFSF is interested in supporting futures-thinking in Africa by encouraging new WFSF membership. So Africa is a priority for WFSF as well.
