Future Policy Award
Since 2009, the World Future Council has been honouring effective policies
that promote better living conditions for current and future generations
with the Future Policy Award (FPA), known as the Oscar on best policies.
Each time, the Award is dedicated to a different, pressing topic. [1] [3]
The WFC has developed a methodology for future-just lawmaking
that supports legislators in the conception, revision and evaluation of policies.
The methodology is based on the seven principles for sustainable development
presented by the International Law Association and adopted at the 2002 Earth Summit: [2] [4]
- Sustainable use of natural resources
- Equity and poverty eradication
- Precautionary approach to human health, natural resources and ecosystems
- Public participation, access to information and justice
- Good governance and human security
- Integration and interrelationship
- Common but differentiated responsibilities
FuturePolicy.org is an online database designed for forward-thinking policy-makers,
to simplify the sharing of existing and proven policy solutions
to tackle the world’s most fundamental and urgent problems.
