In August 2005, Fabienne GOUX-BAUDIMENT, fellow and member of the Executive Council of the Federation, was elected President of the WFSF for a period of four years.

She thus became the 9th president since the creation of the NGO in 1973 and the first French president after Bertrand de JOUVENEL (1973-1974).

The WFSF is the world professional organization of foresight practitioners. It is a stimulating place, the place of exchange and analysis of ideas, which encourages a critical examination of visions and projects for alternative futures through an innovating interdisciplinary analysis.

Four main programmes were carried out during this mandate, initiated by her presidency:

  • improvement of services rendered to members, by an overhaul of the management and the operation of the Federation

  • creation of the Latin American Regional Chapter

  • overhaul of the website and automatisation of membership management

  • constitution of an online resource centre dedicated to the promotion of teaching and of professional training in foresight.

How do you become a member of the WFSF?

  • An application form is available on the site.

  • Once completed and sent to the Membership Secretariat, it is examined and then addressed to the Executive Council who then decide whether or not to accept the applicant.

The language of the Federation is English.
