The Futures Project: Reimagining the Future for Prosperity Across the Life Course
In late October, over 30 leading experts in education and workforce development gathered at Stanford for the launch of the Stanford Center on Longevity’s new Futures Project. Unlike traditional conferences, this event focused on initiating a year-long dialogue about revamping education to support longer lifespans. Fellows from diverse fields will explore how society can better prepare for lifelong learning and career shifts, drawing insights from SCL’s New Map of Life. The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) also played a key role, fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration.
December 11: A conversation with Natalie Foster
In The Guarantee, Natalie Foster envisions an America where housing, healthcare, education, dignified work, family care, an inheritance, and a basic income are guaranteed for all by the government. Our current economic system already supports the private sector with government-backed guarantees, so why not the rest of us? How could this promote healthy aging in a time of longer lifespans? Join us on December 11th to explore Foster’s new Guarantee Framework—based on real experiences, collaborations with key activists, and actionable policies for modern America.
