Rescue our Future Foundation
The Foundation
The Rescue Our Future Foundation offers a global forum to bring together critical minds and concerned people for discussion and dialogue on rescuing humanity’s future. The goal of the foundation is to stimulate dialogue, critical reflection and concrete action related to securing the future of humanity. The foundation pursues this goal among others through the publication of scientific research and the organization of international meetings.
About the foundation
Awareness, alertness and liberation from mental enslavement take a central place in the Foundation’s activities, with a special focus on the empowerment of those who are destined to populate the future, the youth on all continents. To realize that, the Rescue Our Future Foundation mobilizes and brings together the countless moral reserves that the species still possesses.
