Congratulations on setting up Foresight Academy
I am indeed very happy to learn about the setting up Foresight Academy. The slow and steady start is indeed very auspicious. I wish you will get it wider visibility. This will encourage new ideas to emerge and not get constrained by the virus of "when I was there" virus.
All the very best. Count me in for any assistance.

Global Foresight Academy - In Making?
Dear Sridhar,
Yes it is in making, actually we are starting with Africa as there is a request from FARA to launch the African Chapter of this virtual academy. We will have a workshop by the end of May where the foundations and principles of such an academy for Africa will be discussed and hopefully defined as well as proposed actions that will be then submitted to the the next GCARD in Uruguay in October 2012.
Have you a specific interest in foresight and this intitiative?
Best regards
Robin

Dear Robin,

Its great that the Academy would be starting soon in Africa with FARA support. I would like to be associated with this initiative and look forward to contribute from my side. I also would work for taking up such kind of initiative in Asia (India).

Thanks & Regards
