Centre for the Future
TI's New Sister Organization
In 2006 John Lifton and Pamela Zoline founded the "Centre for the Future" in the border town of Slavonice, Czech Republic.
September 2006 saw The Centre hold two simultaneous dual-language festivals: “Robot,” a gathering of science fiction authors and artists from the US, UK and the Czech Republic, and a Cultural Landscapes Festival examining how we humans shape the physical world through our actions.
The Centre for the Future is poised to become a leader in sustainability studies in the 21st century. Slavonice is a beautifully preserved renaissance town literally at the heart of Europe, where east meets west.
The Centre is gearing up to be a portal of information on the fast growing area of sustainability studies and will host conferences, visiting scholars, a library, and students from all over the world in our remodeled 19th century school building in the Slavonice town square.
