Nodes identify participants, translate questionnaires and reports, and conduct interviews, special research, workshops, symposiums, and advanced training.
are groups of experts and institutions that connect global and local views
Millennium Project Nodes

• Make that thinking available through a variety of media for consideration in
• policymaking
• advanced training
• educational curricula• public education
• Continually respond to feedback, to accumulate wisdom about potential futures

One of Today’s Greatest Challenges…
Information overload…
![Page 11: Global Futures Intelligence System talk at WFSF 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559447601a28ab1a0d8b45d9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
From Noise to Relevance

![Page 12: Global Futures Intelligence System talk at WFSF 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559447601a28ab1a0d8b45d9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Text and data mining techniques are good at addressing:
• WHO?• WHAT?• WHEN?• WHERE?
Additional questions usually require more human insight:
• HOW?• WHY?
Types of Questions
![Page 13: Global Futures Intelligence System talk at WFSF 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559447601a28ab1a0d8b45d9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Collective Intelligence
• It is an emergent property• from synergies among
• data/info/knowledge• software/hardware• experts and others with insight
• that continually learns from feedback• to produce (nearly) just in time knowledge for
better decisions• than these elements acting alone
![Page 14: Global Futures Intelligence System talk at WFSF 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559447601a28ab1a0d8b45d9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Why Collective Intelligence?
• The volume, velocity, and variety of information and change are increasing exponentially
• The data, information, knowledge, intelligence explosion is accelerating
• Local issues depend on global developments• The MP work shows that humanity has the
knowledge to address the challenges ahead • Will we use that knowledge to make the decisions
necessary?• We believe collective intelligence can help

Experts and those with Insight
• Experts identified through literature searches, nomination by peers, recommendations of professional organizations, and self-selected.
• Important qualifications are their discipline, experience, work, interests, and creativity.
• Provide inputs in their area of expertise and/or make recommendations for other challenges.
• Policymakers as users and generators of information.
• Information cross-referenced and peer-reviewd.
• Information fed into GFIS.
