In the face of unprecedented global risks exacerbated by new technologies and systemic fragility, The Project aims to uncover and understand the metacrisis of our time within a broader context that recognises the interconnectedness of humanity’s challenges: any solution must factor the underlying drivers of each one.
The Consilience Project is dedicated to releasing innovative research on the forefronts of global risk mitigation, governance design, and culture. Publications delve into the critical challenges and existential threats confronting humanity, as well as the inherent issues in existing approaches to tackle them. The project outlines the necessity for a redesign of social systems and institutions to ensure the survival of free, open, non-authoritarian societies.
Research and analysis is designed to assist decision-makers and leaders in navigating the essential routes required to tackle the distinctive challenges of our era. The content available is intended for individuals, groups, or institutions seeking innovation in addressing global coordination challenges, mitigating catastrophic risks, and harnessing social technologies.
Articles, podcasts & media include such titles as: ‘Technology is Not Values Neutral: Ending the Reign of Nihilistic Design’; ‘The Endgames of Bad Faith Communication’; ‘How to Mislead with Facts’; and ‘Social Media Enables Undue Influence’.
Content is available freely to all. Believing that “universal access to information is foundational to a functioning open society”, the group states that “for the duration of this project, none of our content will ever be behind a paywall.”
