WAAS has been granted 'Special Consultative Status' by the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in July 2017. This empowers the Academy to actively engage with ECOSOC and its subsidiary bodies, as well as with the UN Secretariat, programmes, funds and agencies. This enables WAAS to express its views and to influence the work of the Council through meetings, events, presentations, etc.
WAAS was granted 'Consultative Status' by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2019. This association will enable WAAS to collaborate with UNESCO on research and programming designed to promote a new paradigm in person-centered, collaborative, contextual and transdisciplinary education in partnership with the World University Consortium.
In March 2014 WAAS entered into a memorandum of understanding for collaboration with European Organization for Nuclear Research, one of the the world's most prestigious scientific research institutions, to further the Academy's exploration of the social consequences and policy implications of knowledge. Apart from its leading edge research on high-energy physics probing the fundamental structure of the universe, CERN is also a superb model of scientific innovation and the birthplace of the World Wide Web. With 22 nations as members, CERN represents an excellent model for advancing international cooperation, which has already led to establishment of SESAME, a sister institution involving countries in the Middle East in highly successful scientific collaboration. CERN also has an active program exploring linkages between art and science. Herwig Schopper, WAAS Trustee and former Director General of CERN, is the Academy's lead contact.
Ethical Markets Media (USA and Brazil) is a micro-multinational social enterprise with the mission of reforming financial markets and metrics while helping accelerate and track the transition to the green economy worldwide. Ethical Markets is partnering with WAAS on the development of new economic theory and finance education through its research activities, television series and daily news reports at www.ethicalmarkets.com.. Ethical Markets Media was founded by Hazel Henderson, a world renowned futurist, evolutionary economist, a worldwide syndicated columnist, consultant on sustainable development, and author of important books on economy, finance and ecology.
ELN is a high level pan-European network of politicians and diplomats working for the complete elimination of nuclear weapons. In 2012-13, WAAS collaborated with ELN to conduct two NATO-sponsored conferences on international security: Nuclear Threats & Security at IUC in Dubrovnik on September 14-17, 2012 and Actions to Enhance Global Security at DHUC in Zagreb on May 3-4, 2013.

WAAS Fellow Ismail Serageldin, Founding Director of the Library of Alexandria, is Co-Chair of the Board of NGIC.
The InterAcademy Partnership (IAP)
In July 2016, WAAS was elected as a member of the Inter-Academy Partnership. The InterAcademy Partnership (IAP), which was formally launched in South Africa in March 2016, brings together established networks of academies of science, medicine and engineering, namely IAP, the global network of science academies, the InterAcademy Medical Panel (IAMP) and the InterAcademy Council (IAC). Under the new InterAcademy Partnership, more than 130 national and regional member/ academies will work together to support the special role of science and its efforts to seek solutions to address the world's most challenging problems. in particular, the new IAP will harness the expertise of the world's scientific, medical and engineering leaders to advance sound policies, promote excellence in science education, improve public health, and achieve other critical development goals. WAAS looks forward to working with WAAS Fellow Mohamed H.A. Hassan, Co-President of IAP and other members of IAP to promote socially responsible application of science for the betterment of humankind.
The Millennium Project is a global participatory think tank established in 1996 under the American Council for the United Nations University that became independent in 2009 and has grown into a global network of 63 nodal groups of institutions and individuals around the world group connecting local and global perspectives and building a global collective intelligence system recognized for its ability to improve prospects for humanity. MP identifies long-range challenges and strategies and initiates and conducts foresight studies, workshops, symposiums, and advanced training. Its mission is to improve thinking about the future and make it available through a variety of media for feedback to accumulate wisdom about the future for better decisions today. It produces the State of the Future reports, the Futures Research Methodology series, the Global Futures Intelligence System (GFIS), and special studies. Over 4,500 futurists, scholars, business planners, and policymakers who work for international organizations, governments, corporations, NGOs, and universities have participated in MP research since its inception.
United Nations Academic Impact
WAAS is now a member of the UNAI, an association of 1000 colleges and universities in some 120 countries working with the United Nations to promote global priorities, including peace, human rights, and sustainable development. The Academy looks to collaborate with UNAI to promote a new paradigm in global higher education.
The World Academy of Art & Science (WAAS) was founded in 1960 by eminent intellectuals including Albert Einstein; Robert Oppenheimer, Father of Manhattan Project; Bertrand Russell, Joseph Needham, co-Founder of UNESCO; Lord Boyd Orr, first Director General of FAO; Brock Chisholm, first Director General of WHO and many others. The Academy serves as a forum for reflective scientists, artists, and scholars dedicated to addressing the pressing challenges confronting humanity today independent of political boundaries or limits, whether spiritual or physical -- a forum where these problems can be discussed objectively, scientifically, globally, and free from vested interests or regional attachments to arrive at solutions that affirm universal human rights and serve the common good of all humanity. WAAS is founded on faith in the power of original and creative ideas -- Real Ideas with effective power -- to change the world.
Our motto: Leadership in thought that leads to action
WAAS Fellows come from diverse cultures, nationalities, intellectual disciplines and professions, chosen for eminence in the natural, technological and social sciences; the arts and humanities; different professions and fields of public service. Its focus from the beginning has been to address global social challenges. Its founding motive comes from the knowledge that academic knowledge cannot be separated or divorced from the social responsibility of how the knowledge is used.
WAAS approaches all its activities from a value-based, human-centered, comprehensive and transdisciplinary perspective encompassing issues related to peace and security, human rights and governance, economy and finance, education and human development, society and culture, technology and ecology. It is engaged in a variety of activities with UN organizations. The Academy collaborates with a network of national centers and international partners around the world.
One of the aims of the Academy's founders was to function as "an informal WORLD UNIVERSITY". In pursuit of this goal, in 2013 WAAS collaborated with other organizations to found the World University Consortium(www.wunicon.org). In collaboration with WUC, it conducts a series of international conferences on future education, curriculum development roundtables to develop new transdisciplinary subjects, and pilot projects in collaboration with experimental partnering educational institutions.
WAAS has been accorded special consultative status by the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and consultative status by UNESCO.
The World Academy of Art and Science is an association of committed individuals drawn from diverse cultures, nationalities, occupations and intellectual pursuits spanning the arts, humanities and sciences, conscious of the profound social consequences and policy implications of knowledge, and united by a common aspiration to address the urgent challenges and emerging opportunities confronting humanity today. Our mission is to promote cross-disciplinary dialogue generative of original ideas and integrated perspectives that comprehend the root causes and effective remedies for our common problems, while furthering those currents of thought and social movement that affirm the value of human dignity and equitable development. The Academy dedicates itself to the pursuit of creative, catalytic ideas that can provide to present and future generations enlightened leadership in thought that leads to effective action.
The idea of founding an international association for exploring major concerns of humanity in a nongovernmental context grew out of many conversations that took place among leading scientists and intellectuals in the years following World War II. Prominent among this group were people such as Albert Einstein and Robert Oppenheimer who had played a part in the development of the atomic bomb and were deeply concerned about how it and other scientific advances might be used – or misused.
This informal project took a major step forward in 1956, when a meeting – The First International Conference on Science and Human Welfare – was held in Washington, D. C. The organizers were two American scientists: Richard Montgomery Field of Princeton, who had worked for many years as chairman of an international committee on the social values of science; and John A. Fleming, former President of the International Council of Scientific Unions. At the end of the conference, participants agreed to take steps toward the formation of a World Academy, and elected an International Preparatory Committee for that purpose. Its members were: (from France) Pierre Chouard, George Laclavére and G. Le Lionnaise; (from the United Kingdom) Ritchie Calder, H. Munro Fox and Joseph Needham; and (from the United States) Robert Oppenheimer.
The Academy was formally founded (and its first officers elected) in 1960. They were: as President, Lord John Boyd Orr of Scotland; as Vice Presidents, Hermann Joseph Muller of the United States and Hugo Ostvald of Sweden; and, as Secretary General, Hugo Boyko of Israel.

Future of Democracy: Challenges & Opportunities - Recent Course
Democracy is under siege. Traditional bastions of liberal democracy are faltering. Young democracies are reverting to their authoritarian pasts. Populism, corporatization of the media, fake news, retreat from globalism, oligarchy, corruption and other perils are undermining fairness, effectiveness and truthfulness. Just when it appeared that the world was converging on a universal set of values and standards for governance at the national and international level, fundamental questions are being raised regarding the viability and sustainability of democratic institutions. Recent events raise fundamental questions regarding the institutions of governance and also about the underlying social, psychological, cultural and evolutionary processes that determine how these institutions function.
Is democracy in its current form really the most viable and effective system of governance? Are human beings sufficiently rational and selfless to govern themselves justly and effectively? Is the future of democracy at the national level compatible with the persistence of non-democratic institutions at the international level? By what process has the distribution of social power shifted from army, monarchy, aristocracy to democracy and how is that process likely to evolve further in future? To what extent are the institutional problems confronting democracy today reflections of underlying social, psychological and cultural factors and processes? What proven and potential safeguards and remedies are available to address the failures and insufficiencies of contemporary democracies? Is democracy the best possible system or merely a stage in the evolution of governance toward something more stable, an effective and equitable system?
Mind, Thinking & Creativity - Recent Course
Mind is humanity's highest developed instrument for seeking knowledge. It is the master tool that we use to comprehend the present, remember the past, and anticipate and plan for the future. From the act of striking two flints together to create fire to combining strings of 1s and 0s to design the code for supercomputers, mind has enabled humanity to create remarkable technologies and organized global institutions. The mind is the unifying foundation on which humanity's entire social evolution is based. To understand this vital instrument better, the World Academy of Art & Science and World University Consortium have launched a ground-breaking project to explore Mind, Thinking and Creativity. A greater understanding of the nature of mind, its ways of knowing, the limits to thinking and rationality, mind's untapped potential, the workings of creativity and genius are essential for addressing the challenges confronting humanity today.
In April 2016 WAAS and WUC, along with partnering organizations IACP, IUC, DHUC, and MSS organized a four-day roundtable on Mind, Thinking and Creativity 2016 at Dubrovnik, Croatia for to explore fundamental questions. The meeting was attended by experts from different fields of natural and social science, including medicine, neuroscience, engineering, psychology, sociology, economics, law, and philosophy. Video recordings, presentations and papers for the roundtable are available here. The enthusiastic interest generated by the Dubrovnik meeting spurred efforts of WAAS and the World University Consortium to commence work on a on-line course on this subject which is now underway. A report on last year's meeting including videos and presentations was included in the Academy's July 2016 newsletter.
Roundtable 2 -- November 2017 at Dubrovnik
The second roundtable on Mind, Thinking & Creativity is being conducted by the World University Consortium, the World Academy of Art & Science, the Mother's Service Society, Person-Centered Approach Institute, Dag Hammarskjöld University College of International Relations and Diplomacy and the Inter-University Centre from November 6-8, 2017 at Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia.
Human-Centered Economics - Recent Course
A Post-Graduate Certificate Course in Human-Centered Economics will be conducted by the World Academy of Art & Science, the World University Consortium, The Mother's Service Society, Person-Centered Approach Institute, Dag Hammarskjöld University College of International Relations and Diplomacy and Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia from Feb 1-Feb 3,2017 at Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia.
The multidimensional challenges confronting humanity today are human-made and can be changed by a change in thought and action. Contemporary economic thought is built on a mind-frame that originated prior to the Industrial Revolution when scarcity of goods in a world of abundant resources was the primary concern, economic growth was considered synonymous with human welfare, and impact of humanity on the environment was completely ignored. Without challenging obvious flaws in existing theory, it will be not be possible to significantly alter current policies and practices.
The overall aim of the course is to (a) demonstrate why mainstream neo-classical economic theory is inappropriate for dealing with the global challenges of the c.21st, and (b) explore alternative approaches for achieving ecologically sustainable, human-centered development and welfare for all.
This course will present the findings of a five year research program of the World Academy of Art & Science and the on-going work of the New Economic Theory working group. It will harness the best available ideas and practices on human-centred, sustainable economy to create informative, authoritative and compelling educational and communication tools with the power to challenge and alter university level education in Economics, public policy, business decisions, media coverage and general public opinion regarding how the world economy should and can work for the betterment of all humanity.
Social Power - Recent Course
A Post-Graduate Certificate Course in Social Power, Empowerment & Social Evolution will be conducted by the World Academy of Art & Science, the World University Consortium, The Mother's Service Society, Person-Centered Approach Institute, Dag Hammarskjöld University College of International Relations and Diplomacy and Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia from Oct 31-Nov 4, 2016 at Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia.
Humanity lives in a time of unprecedented capacity for accomplishment in every field of social life. Never before have we possessed power of this magnitude for good or for evil. Never before has power been so widely distributed within society. Democracy, law, human rights, science, technology, education and many other forms of social organization have generated immense power. Society governs the possession and exercise of this power through formal structures and institutions, such as law and human rights, as well as through both legitimate and extra-legal informal mechanisms including status, wealth, popularity, political influence and corruption. The distribution of power in its various forms powerfully impacts on the functioning of the economy, political system, educational, scientific, religious and and other social institutions, and on the overall productivity, strength, integrity, harmony and welfare of society. This transdisciplinary course will explore the sources, expressions, determinants and consequences of the creation, distribution and exercise of social power in its various expressions in politics, economy, society and culture and its consequences for the evolution of society as a whole.
Mind, Thinking & Creativity - Recent Course
Mind is humanity's highest developed instrument for seeking knowledge. It is an instrument with remarkable capabilities and characteristic limitations. It is ironic that we invest so little time in education and scientific endeavor trying to understand the nature of mental knowledge and the character of the mental processes by which we arrive at it. The objective of this course is to arrive at an understanding of the inherent limits to rationality and mental ways of knowing, as well as the extraordinary creative and intuitive processes by which mind transcends those limitations and tends toward genius.
Thinking is the activity by which mind associates, organizes, coordinates and integrates information, thoughts and ideas. Creative thinking is the process by which mind extends the boundaries of existing thought and knowledge to connect, reconcile and unify previously unconnected or contradictory perspectives. This course will explore the characteristics of mental knowledge and thought processes, types of thinking, the character of rational thought, the mental and social construction of knowledge, deep thinking, creativity and genius. Rather than focus on abstract philosophical concepts, it will apply this knowledge to understand both the sources of humanity's prolific mental creativity, the characteristic problems it confronts due to irresolvable conflicts and contradictions between mental perspectives, and their resolution in different fields of natural and social science, public policy, collective and individual behavior.
Future Education - Recent Course
A Post-Graduate Certificate Course in Future Education was conducted by the World Academy of Art & Science, the World University Consortium, The Mother's Service Society, Person-Centered Approach Institute, Dag Hammarskjöld University College of International Relations and Diplomacy and Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia from September 21-23, 2015 at Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia.
Education is our best hope for a better future. Emergence of a new paradigm in education can radically abridge the time required for humanity to address critical issues related to economy, governance, ecology and life-style. Education is the best known instrument for ensuring universal human rights, promoting democracy, enhancing productivity and protecting the environment.There is urgent need to evolve a new paradigm in education appropriate to the needs of the 21st century. Closing the gap between social needs and educational capabilities is essential for addressing pressing challenges confronting humanity today. A review of education today makes evident that there is enormous scope for improving and developing the educational system. Whatever its current limitations in terms of inadequate coverage, quality and content, the means and potential exist for dramatically enhancing humanity's individual and collective performance in virtually all spheres of our social existence by realistic, achievable improvements in education. We need a new paradigm in education capable of more fully and effectively developing the latent capacities of our youth.
Essence of Effective Leadership - Recent Course
A Post-Graduate Certificate Course in Essence of Effective Leadership was conducted by the World Academy of Art & Science, the World University Consortium, The Mother's Service Society, Person-Centered Approach Institute, Dag Hammarskjöld University College of International Relations and Diplomacy and Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia from March 31 to April 3, 2015 at Inter-University Centre, Dubrovnik, Croatia.
This course explored the characteristics common to leaders in business, politics, civil society, science, arts, professions and education and examined methods by which these characteristics can be consciously developed by individuals. The presentations consist of theory, practical strategies, and a wide range of examples drawn from biography, history, management, and literature from movies illustrating the principles under discussion. Apart from the presentations, our faculty interacted with participants to bring home the theoretical significance and practical relevance of the material.
Individual Accomplishment, Growth & the Character of Life in Management, History,
Literature, and Psychology - Recent Course
The Individual is the catalyst of all social progress, the source of creativity, innovation, new ideas and new initiatives. The individual is the genetic source of human diversity. The entrepreneur, inventor, social reformer, revolutionary leader, original thinker and creative artist are a few of individuality's expressions. Yet how little we understand about the characteristics of true individuality, the ways in which it expresses, the means for developing it, and the means for realizing real individuality in one's own life.
History demonstrates that individuals have the power to change the world. This course explored the relationship between personality and accomplishment. It examined the role of Individuality and Values in personal achievement, growth of personality and social progress drawing on evidence from Management Science, History, Psychology and Literature. It explored the relationship between creative individuals and society searching for insights into the principles and process that govern successful human initiatives and their consequences in various fields of life.
The course was intended for both students and practitioners in all fields interested in advancing theoretical understanding and practical approaches to promote the development of entrepreneurship, individuality, creativity, original thinking and other forms of social innovation. It explored the role of the individual in development of society, elucidated the characteristics of true individuals, the source of their amazing power for accomplishment and the process by which they act as catalysts of social innovation. While the presentation was academic, the objective was to impart original insights and practical knowledge for personal growth and individuation.
Toward a Trans-disciplinary Science of Society - Recent Course
Today humanity is confronted by a plethora of serious challenges – political, economic, legal, social, cultural, psychological and ecological. These challenges are complex, interrelated, and global in reach. They are a reflection of the inadequacy of current institutions and policies and at a deeper level the inadequacy of current knowledge. They defy comprehension and resolution based on the prevailing principles of social science. The specialized knowledge developed by separate disciplines is inadequate to deal with the increasingly complex interdependencies of the real world. Knowledge needs to evolve to keep pace with the evolution of society.
The evolution of a complex, highly integrated global society necessitates the development of a more comprehensive and integrated science of society. The division into various specialized fields has been a useful mental strategy for the development of the social sciences, leading to significant advances in all fields – knowledge which needs to be preserved and enhanced by future developments. Yet it is increasingly evident that a more comprehensive and integrated approach is now required. As society evolves, its different functions develop greater complexity. At the same time they become more closely and complexly interlinked and interdependent on one another. Economy today is highly dependent on the political system and laws governing the distribution and enforcement of power in society, legal concepts regarding ownership of property and human rights, public institutions responsible for the creation and management of money, rules for commerce between nations, public policies influencing income and wealth distribution, processes that determine collective decision-making, public investment in education and training, and social expectations regarding economy and the future, etc. A recent announcement by the White House of an 'intention' to examine measures to discourage shifting of US firms to tax havens overseas resulted in a 10% fall in market value for several large firms.
Strategic Planning Committee Program Framework
Being a world academy composed of members drawn from the arts, social and physical sciences, humanities, business, public administration and civil society poses fundamental questions. How can WAAS distinguish itself from other national and regional academies? Is there really a common meeting point between art and science? Is there a unique contribution that WAAS can make to the world's knowledge?
At the New Delhi General Assembly, Fellows explored facets of a new program framework developed by the Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) which seeks to answer these questions in the affirmative. Rather than distinguish itself by specializing on a particular set of disciplines, issues or geographic area, the framework is an attempt to formulate a comprehensive approach and integrated perspective of knowledge inclusive of all disciplinary perspectives and applicable to social problems and opporunities in all fields.
The core of the framework is a human-centered conception of what constitutes reliable knowing, a question posed to the SPC by Ruben Nelson. In his presentation to the GA, Garry Jacobs explained how this conception applies to WAAS's projects on new economic theory, individuality and limits to rationality. Pushpa Bhargava pointed out that a human centered perspective naturally incorporates ecology, since the survival and full development of humanity depends on its capacity to evolve in harmony with the environment.
Global Leadership in the 21st Century
There is an urgent need to fill the global leadership vacuum in order to address the complex, pressing challenges confronting humanity today. Leadership is needed at all levels in all fields. Leadership is a catalytic process that can accomplish what leaders cannot. The leadership needed must be inspired by universal values and visionary ideas, energized by high goals and awareness of untapped opportunities, given expression by courageous individuals, implemented by innovative organizations, and fulfilled by awakening and unleashing the aspirations of the whole society.
The World Academy of Art & Science, in partnership with the United Nations at Geneva, is conducting a multi-stakeholder, multi-sectoral project highlighting innovative strategies and effective principles to accelerate the emergence of dynamic leadership for successful implementation of the SDGs. The project will involve consultations with IGOs, nation states, business, scientific research and educational institutions, civil society and youth organizations. It will culminate in a major two-day conference at UNOG in October 2020, followed by a report to the UN, educational and other outreach strategies. The overarching objective of the project is to become a catalyst to accelerate the emergence of dynamic leadership for global development. Its strategy is to consciously apply at the global level essential principles of effective leadership that have previously served as catalysts for rapid transformation at the level of organizations, nation states and international organizations.
New Paradigm Program
Scope: The world confronts multiple crises, each of which resists current efforts at resolution and appears intractable. The environmental crisis of climate change occupied the center stage in the mid-2000s. Fears of nuclear weapons proliferation, which had subsided into complacency in the years following the end of the Cold War, suddenly surfaced with renewed intensity when Korea tested nuclear weapons and long range missiles and news surfaced of Iran's secret nuclear weapons program in 2007.
Then the subprime mortgage crisis exploded in late 2008, spreading havoc through financial markets across the world. It was followed quickly by a sudden and substantial slowing of economic growth in OECD countries, rising levels of unemployment and most recently a crisis of excessive government debt.
In spite of the enormous attention being given to each of these issues by specialists nationally and internationally, progress on all fronts appears to be nearly at a standstill or at least far too slow to meet pressing human concerns. The times we live in are a Wild West of globalization and the unbridled, unregulated expansion of international activities threatens to destabilize and undermine the remarkable progress of the previous five decades.
This project is predicated on the assumption that each of these problems defies solution because they all represent problems that transcend the sovereign powers of the nation-state. None of them can be fully and satisfactorily addressed by nation-states acting individually. All are symptoms of the evolution of world society to a stage where concerted and coordinated global action is required to meet the collective needs of humanity for peace, security, financial stability, economic welfare and sustainable development. This project has been conceived to address the underlying and interrelated issues that all these challenges pose to global governance.
World University Consortium
The mission of World University Consortium is to evolve and promote development of accessible, affordable, quality higher education worldwide based on a human-centered approach that shifts the emphasis from specialized expertise to contextualized knowledge within a trans-disciplinary conceptual framework reflecting the complexity and integration of the real world, from teaching mastery of a field of knowledge to learning that enhances the capacity of students to think and discover knowledge for themselves, from theoretical mastery to acquisition of knowledge, skills and values relevant to each individual's personal development and career – an educational system better suited to develop the full potentials of social personality and individuality for productive engagement, social welfare and psychological well-being. The objectives are:
- Identify global best practices and develop effective global models and strategies to improve accessibility, affordability, quality, innovation and relevance in higher education appropriate to the needs of the 21st century.
- Develop innovative, open learning systems and more effective models that extend the reach of quality higher education to people of all age groups globally.
- Explore new models of online and hybrid delivery systems designed to facilitate learning through teacher-student and student-student interaction.
- Enhance the learning process through research, development and application of advanced instruments for measurement and evaluation of educational processes.
- Promote person-centered approaches that emphasize self-guided learning, critical and original thinking, inspirational forms of instruction, learning to learn, trans-disciplinary contextualized perspectives, learning by teaching and sharing with others, edutainment and experiential learning.
- Develop transcultural and culture-specific methods and content reflecting universal human values.
- Create a worldwide forum where all the stakeholders can meet, interact and create new networks, partnerships and projects.
A multidisciplinary group from the World Academy of Art & Science and the Club of Rome are leading a quest for a new human-centered theory of economics that reflects recent changes resulting from the emergence of a service-based economy, globalization, rising social aspirations and changing values, and is integrated with political, social, ecological, technological, and cultural factors from which it is inseparable.
Access to employment is the most essential requirement for providing economic security to the world's burgeoning population.
This interdisciplinary dialogue explores theoretical and practical aspects of the global employment challenge, including its demographic, economic, legal, political, psychological dimensions as well as linkages with the international financial crisis, social stability, and terrorism.
The devastating consequences of nuclear war and the potential destructive applications of science and technology were paramount concerns among Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, Robert Oppenheimer, Joseph Rotblat and others which led to the founding of the World Academy in 1960.
Nuclear disarmament is a sine qua non for effectively addressing other issues of global important – terrorism, financial stability, unemployment, poverty, climate change, democratization of the UN and other aspects of global governance. In recent years, the Academy has conducted numerous conferences, seminars and workshops and collaborating with other organizations in an effort to promote concrete steps toward immediate and total global nuclear disarmament.
The Security & Sustainability Guide
The SSG, a project of the World Academy & Art & Science, is based on the premise that people and nations cannot be secure without sustainability, nor sustainable if insecure. It responds to the fact that challenges facing humanity such as public health preparedness are greatly understated, and the many organizations responding to these challenges are underappreciated.
Mind is humanity's highest developed instrument for seeking knowledge. It is an instrument with remarkable capabilities and characteristic limitations. It is ironic that we invest so little time in education and scientific endeavor trying to understand the nature of mental knowledge and the character of the mental processes by which we arrive at it.
The objective of this project is to arrive at an understanding of the inherent limits to rationality and mental ways of knowing, as well as the extraordinary creative and intuitive processes by which mind transcends those limitations and tends toward genius.
Individuality is the crown of human evolution and the catalyst for social progress, yet there are very different conceptions of what constitutes true individuality, the relationship between the individual and society, and whether humanity is inevitably evolving toward higher levels of individuality.
This project will explore the essential nature of individuality, the social and cultural factors that foster it, its role in social development, its myriad expressions in the original thinker, creative artist, political leader, entrepreneur, inventor and social innovator, and the means available to society to foster it.
In 2013 WAAS launched a project to explore important developments in recently emerging fields of science, with e-conferences on the Science of Networks and the Science of Complexity. The project involves an application of concepts and tools from the new sciences relevant to address the global challenges confronting humanity today and to the evolution of a transdisciplinary science of society.
The evolution of international law and human rights represent crucial threads in the progressive development of global rule of law.
This project will explore the relationship between the social, political and legal dimensions of global rule of law in an effort to frame the boundaries of a wider approach to the evolution of global governance. Emphasis will be place to re-examining the concept of national sovereignty and the common rights of humanity in an increasingly globalized world.

A pika sits on sentry duty in western Colorado.
Why do I always have to go first?
Chipmunks enjoying the last bit of Colorado mountain sunshine before a storm rolled in. It snowed later in the evening.
On Alert
Hi There!
I love taking photos of the yellow bellied marmots we see in southwestern Colorado. They are plentiful, but tend to scurry away as I stop in my car and try to capture their wonderful expressions. Every once in a while I get lucky and get a "poser" like this one.
Marmot chillin'
I always have my camera sitting in my lap as I drive down the gravel road to the highway near our cabin in western Colorado as I never know what I will see. I find that if I stay in my car and shoot out the window I won't frighten the marmots that are frequently sitting on the rocks enjoying watching the world go by.
Family Portrait
I was out looking for pikas ( I did find a colony eventually but they were so elusive I did not get any photos) and found this "rowdy batch" of marmots sunning on the rocks instead.
This itch is driving me crazy!
I love to watch and photograph marmots! After thirty plus years living in Colorado, I finally gave in and paid the fees to drive up to the top of Pikes Peak. The drive and the views are spectacular and was well worth the price of admission. While I was hoping to see some larger critters, there were plenty of marmots about that were happy to play and pose for the camera. This guy got so close to me I thought he was going to come right up and sit in my lap!
Afternoon Snack
As much as I love the typical warm and sunny Florida days we have during our stay, I also look forward to the cloudy and rainy afternoons as many of the critters that typically hide during the day come out and are easier to see and photograph. Such was a recent afternoon. There were actually two raccoons that my wife spotted happily snacking away, although one quickly decided it did not want to pose for photos and disappeared. This one was pretty oblivious to us and continued to forage away.
Fall Harvest
We were on our way hiking to the rocky knoll that overlooks the Grand Prismatic Spring when, as is almost always the case, my wife saw him first. In fact, I wonder how much I miss when she is not with me! This little squirrel was busily scurrying from branch to branch, knocking down pine cones to the ground. After he had dropped a half a dozen or so, down the tree he zipped and gathered them up to store for the hard Yellowstone winter to come.
I know most people look for the "biggies" when it comes to wildlife (just look at the strings of cars and people when they see the bison, elk, bears or wolves) but I love the intimacy of finding small critters like this and having them all to yourself!
Just One More...
A squirrel grabs another pine cone to add to its stash for the upcoming Yellowstone winter.

A new Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Working Group has been launched. The IETF Routing Over Low-power and Lossy Networks (ROLL) Working Group is chartered with developing a framework for using IP-based routing techniques over low-power, "lossy" networks -- networks that wirelessly connect large numbers of sensors and other small, embedded devices in applications ranging from factory automation to the "connected home".
More specifically, the new ROLL group's focus is on developing efficient and interoperable routing protocols that support the use of open-standard, low-power IP networking over a variety of physical links, including IEEE 802.15.4, Bluetooth, Low Power Wi-Fi and wired links. An end-to-end IP-based routing framework will help enable systems of embedded devices that have limited power, memory and processing resources to be connected and managed seamlessly under the IP umbrella regardless of the type of physical links on which they are connected. This contrasts with earlier non-IP architectures that have linked entire networking and routing schemes to a single radio technology.
Co-chairing the new IETF ROLL Working Group are Jean-Philippe Vasseur, distinguished engineer at Cisco, and Dr. David Culler, Arch Rock co-founder and CTO, and professor of computer science at the University of California at Berkeley.
"The IP standard is moving at breakneck speed into new spheres such as industrial monitoring, home and building automation, and urban infrastructure networks," said Culler. "But the links and devices in these environments have different characteristics than in the traditional IT-oriented Internet: lower power, bandwidth and processing capability, the need to route around obstructions. Building on earlier IETF work that enabled IP to run efficiently in such environments, it is now critical to specify the most efficient dynamic routing protocols with multi-vendor interoperability in mind. Arch Rock and Cisco share a belief that solutions developed for this new 'embedded tier' of the Internet should naturally extend the ubiquitous IP infrastructure without the protocol translation gateways and proxies that have previously been required to connect non-interoperable legacy networks."
Vasseur added, "The early adoption of open-standard, IP-based solutions made the Internet the incredibly powerful force it is today. Cisco and Arch Rock strongly support the standardization of IP-based routing solutions for low-power networks through ROLL because we believe that adapting the known body of IP routing techniques to a new class of links with specific resource constraints will address the needs of emerging embedded markets far better than non-standard, non-IP approaches. IP has proven to be the open standard for a variety of devices, and the use of IP in low-power networks will enable a variety of new services in connected homes and buildings, factories and smart cities, making the "Internet of Things" a reality. The objective is to reuse a number of existing IP-based technologies and extend or adapt them only when needed to address the specific requirements of these networks. An interoperable IP-based approach, available over a choice of industry-standard low-power radio networks, will help offer our customers maximum interoperability, deployment flexibility and investment protection at minimum cost."

Pain clinic owner faces additional drug charges
Feds: Singleton purchased farm with ill-gotten gains
The owner of a northern Kentucky pain clinic has been indicted on additional federal charges.
Ernest William Singleton was arrested earlier this year in his hometown of Springfield, Ky., on charges of conspiracy to distribute oxycodone and conspiracy to launder funds.
The 44-year-old Singleton and his businesses, Double D Holdings and S&R Medical Enterprises, operated Central Kentucky Bariatric and Pain Management in Georgetown and Grant County Wellness Clinic in Dry Ridge.
Attorney General Jack Conway's office said Singleton operated the pain management clinics until closing them after state lawmakers passed legislation last year to curb prescription drug abuse.
A federal grand jury indicted Singleton this week on 11 new money laundering-related charges, another drug conspiracy count and three counts of distributing and dispensing controlled substances.
Investigators said Singleton conspired to distribute Diazepam and Ultram for medically illegitimate purposes.
One of Singleton's former medical facilities, the Grant County Wellness Center located in Dry Ridge, Ky., was charged in the drug and money laundering conspiracies and for maintaining a premise involved in drug trafficking.
Authorities said Singleton used money he made from illegally dispensing drugs to buy a Willisburg home, a boat, farmland and farm equipment.
The U.S. government is seeking the forfeiture of six vehicles, 27 firearms, more than 40 pieces of farm equipment, proceeds from the sale of livestock and hay, and more than $300,000.
Singleton faces up to 20 years in prison for the drug trafficking conspiracy and up to 20 years for the money laundering conspiracy, and his businesses are subject to fines if convicted.

Grattagliano is the founder of Arkay, a product line of beverages that are whisky-flavored, but 100% free of alcohol. Though only recently introduced, demand for the beverage has generated sales throughout the world, and the company is building on current successes by introducing new lines of vodka, rum, gin and Tequila, which may taste like the real deal, but are totally free of alcohol.
Grattagliano was inspired to produce the drinks following an episode with his 22 year-old son, who upon returning home from a party where there was ample imbibing, began to feel those certain unappealing after-effects. "He suggested that someone should create a whisky that doesn't leave you feeling so hung-over," explains Grattagliano. The son, of course, didn't realize that suggestion would compel his father to not only spend the next five years of his life researching such a method, but he would spend five million dollars to make it happen.
Though Grattagliano doesn't have a background in beverage development, he certainly understands chemistry, as well as how to combine ingredients in such a way as to attract allure and appeal from the discriminating masses. He has made an enviable fortune by creating designer perfumes which are touted by some of the top beauty & cosmetic companies known to the world. After spending nearly two years attempting to devise an alcohol-free derivative that not only smelled, but tasted like whiskey, Grattagliano sought the expertise from a team of scientists at a lab in Switzerland. This collaboration ultimately resulted in the creation of an entirely new molecule, the quintessential break-through by which Arkay beverages were born.
The name derives from Grattagliano's travels abroad. Apparently, during his stays in China, some people had trouble pronouncing his first name. Instead of saying "Reynald" their utterance was closer to "Arr-K" – which was AOK with him.
Grattagliano worked several years on the project and it is only on 2012 that the W.A.R.M molecule was discovered.

This alcohol replacement is a unique and innovative drink for consumers world-wide looking for an alcohol-free liquor alternative with placebo effect.
Arkay Alcohol Replacement Feel And Taste Exactly Like Liquor It Has The Same Burn And Kick In Mouth Than Real Liquor
Arkay has a small molecule placed inside the drink. In contact with the tongue, the drink sends stimuli to the brain, the illusion operates, and the mucous membranes of smell and taste saturate and make the consumer believe that he is drinking alcohol.
But beware, no drunkenness, no adverse effect, this is the advantage of Arkay. It reproduces the taste of the liquor but none of the negative effects of the alcohol.
Arkay non-alcoholic liquors are for EVERYONE and can be enjoyed ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
Since it can be consumed all night long without any intoxicating effects – it contains 0% Alcohol, 0% Calories, 0% Carbs 0% Sugar, 0% sweetener, Gluten-free, Friendly vegan.
Individuals with medical conditions or religious beliefs that prohibit the consumption of alcohol can enjoy the crisp, refreshing taste of Arkay non-alcoholic liquors!
At cocktail parties, designated drivers, teetotalers and pregnant women often are limited to drinking soda, water or juice – options that can become incredibly monotonous. A new beverage in the market is about to shake things up and open a world of possibilities, giving everyone a chance to enjoy all the flavor of whisky with none of the alcohol, calories, sugar or sodium.
Straight-up, "on-the-rocks" or with your favorite mixer, anyway is a good way to ARKAY!
Since it can be consumed all night long without any intoxicating effects – it contains 0% Alcohol, 0% Calories, 0% Carbs 0% Sugar, 0% sweetener, Gluten-free, Friendly vegan.

Cider and Small Plates at the New Amsterdam Market's Hard Cider Revival
Cider Week was underway this Sunday at the second annual Hard Cider Revival at The New Amsterdam Market. The chefs of Marlow and Sons were serving up some delicious small plates paired with stellar ciders from New York Orchards.
Cider done right, it turns out, is way better than the candy-like Woodchuck you might be used to. Many ciders are made from apples too bitter and hard to be eaten ("non-eating apples"), in the same way that wine grapes aren't typically made from the varieties we buy in the supermarket.
Still, some cider makers turn to eating apples to make their ciders, and the results are undeniably different. A batch of cider is usually created from a large variety of apples—we encountered some made with up to forty types.
The paired small plates from Marlow and Sons may have been the stars of the festival, though. Andrew Tarlow, Chef Sean Rembold, and John Connolly, the chefs behind the reliably delicious Williamsburg spot served up some seriously delightful bites bites.
Click through the slideshow above to see what we tasted, apple and otherwise, and catch more Cider Week events here.

Celebrity Style Trend: White Dresses
Even if you proudly wear the crisp hue throughout the year, summer is the best season to sport those bright whites. Chic shifts, full-skirted frocks, and every silhouette in between looks pretty in this stark palette. Embellishments and beading add a little extra glitz, perfect for an evening on the town, while cute details like peter-pan collars and contrasting trims are daytime-approved.
Not only does the shade look totally fresh for every occasion, but accessories are cinch—from colorful clutches to metallic jewels, anything works with a little white dress. Take a cue from Lea Michele and Elizabeth Olsen and pair with sparkly shoes, or opt for colorful kicks like Shay Mitchell. No matter how you wear it, you're sure to look white-hot this season.

6 Top Mutual Fund Managers See Hard Times Ahead
The bears came out in Chicago to report sobering views of the market and offer attractive stocks to seize now.
The overarching message at Morningstar's annual investment conference was downbeat and sobering. Big-picture investors in particular foresee sluggish growth (at best) in the debt-burdened U.S., European and Japanese economies. Some bottom-up stock pickers say they're finding good values, but these tend to be in high-quality, defensive names.
Jeffrey Gundlach, co-manager of DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund (symbol DLTNX), thinks the game is up for Americans after three decades of rapid debt accumulation. The problem is that they must repay those debts in a low-growth economy. Gundlach, the keynote speaker at the conference, which was held in Chicago from June 23 through June 25, anticipates high volatility in stock and other markets because of the "cumulative effects of a monstrous creation of credit." He advises investors to focus on preservation of capital in a deflationary and volatile environment.
Rudolph-Riad Younes, co-manager of Artio International Equity II (symbol JETAX), frets that the U.S. and some other Western governments may already be stuck in a debt trap. "The U.S. government destroyed its balance sheet to save the banks' balance sheets," he says. "Government debt around the world is rising exponentially." The challenge for industrialized nations, he says, is to make the transition from debt trap to self-sustaining growth.
Charles de Vaulx, co-manager of IVA Worldwide Fund (IVWAX), was not alone in expecting the U.S. economy to start weakening in the second half of this year. He calls the recovery an "optical illusion" based on government spending and large inventory adjustments, and he notes that small-business formation and job creation in small businesses are miniscule. De Vaulx sees a "mediocre economic outlook in the U.S. and worse in Europe" and expects U.S. stocks to return only 4% to 7% annualized over the next five to seven years.
But even bearish fund managers such as Steve Romick, of FPA Crescent (FPACX), are spotting value in this market. Romick says he's gravitating toward large, global businesses with rock-solid balance sheets. For instance, he likes the stock of Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), which he says is akin to an annuity with a rising stream of distributions. (More quality ideas: 7 Stocks for the Next 7 Years.)
Dividend-growth mavens such as Hersh Cohen, chief investment officer of ClearBridge Advisors, a unit of Legg Mason, think that this is an excellent time to invest in high-quality companies that regularly boost their dividends. Cohen notes that blue-chip stocks such as Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Abbott Laboratories (ABT), Kimberly-Clark (KMB) and HJ Heinz (HNZ) yield more than ten-year Treasury notes and have the strength to boost those dividend streams even in a slow economy. (See our finds on The Hunt for Dividends .)
Michael Keller, co-manager of BBH Core Select (BBTEX), is also hunting for companies with the stamina to grow in a dour economy. He likes global firms such as Coca-Cola (KO), Nestlé (NSRGY.PK) and PepsiCo (PEP) for their superior brands and worldwide distribution strength. BBH recently added Johnson & Johnson to the portfolio.

I spent the night glued to twitter feeds and message boards last night reading about the UGO buy out of 1up and the cancelation of EGM (Electronic Gaming Monthly). The writers there consistently spoke with a unique voice in video game journalism and I'm sorry to see many of them go. Their writings, shows, and podcasts were a part of my routine. Three of their podcasts filled my MP3 player every week for the last two years. Over that time, people came and went. Relationships were cultivated. Trust was built. I've told many people that I spend more time writing and reading about video games than I do playing. The 1up.com staff was a large part of my gaming experience. They will be missed.
EGM was a video game institution. It was about to enter it's 20th year with its final issue. I remember seeing the very first issue of EGM on newsstands as a kid, but it wasn't until issue number 4 that I became a regular reader. Even as a middle school kid, I was reading about games from numerous magazines (Nintendo Power, GamePro, EGM, Computer and Video Games, Computer Gaming World). One perspective was not good enough even back then… it's no wonder I'm teaching information literacy. But EGM stood out above the rest. Nintendo Power was for the fan in me, Gamepro had a fun kid friendly style with reviews, but EGM felt honest, harsh even at times. Video games got poor ratings. And who didn't wonder who Sushi-X and Quatermann were?
EGM is a part of my gaming history as it is for many video game players. While the death of EGM and print video game magazines was written on the wall for a while now… the loss is not softened.
Thank you to all the EGM writers and editors over the years. Your work has helped video game players question sources, look for additional perspectives, and see their hobby and passion as something more than the electronic "toy" it was back at the start of your run in 1989.
