Biography:

The mission of the Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future is to serve as a forum for representatives and experts from a broad range of disciplines to take an informed, rigorous, and thoughtful look at the multiple forces that will shape our global community in the next 35 to 200 years, and determine what specific impact they may have on our lives. The overarching mission of the Center is to serve as a leading academic nucleus for the study of the future and to produce serious intellectual work that is interdisciplinary, international, non-ideological, and of practical applicability.

The current Director of the Pardee Center is Adil Najam, the Fredrick S. Pardee Chair for Global Public Policy at Boston University, and a Professor in the Departments of International Relations and Geography and Environment.
