First Round Questionnaire Global Challenges Round 1 Questionnaire On behalf of the Millennium Project of the American Council for the United Nations University, we have the honor to invite you to participate in a study to improve understanding of the major global challenges over the next 25 years. You have been selected by one of the 20 Nodes of the Millennium Project due to your insight into these challenges. The results will be used to update and improve the 2004 State of the Future. The Millennium Project is a global participatory system to collect, synthesize, and feedback judgments on an on-going basis about prospects for the human condition. Its annual State of the Future, Futures Research Methodology, and other special reports are used by decision-makers and educators to add focus to important issues, clarify choices, and improve the quality of decisions. The Millennium Project is sponsored by the organizations listed below and its research supported by its Nodes around the world listed on this stationery. No attributions will be made, but respondents will be listed as participants in the 2004 State of the Future. A second round, based on the responses to the enclosed questionnaire, will be sent to you in two or three months. Please contact us with any questions and return your responses to arrive at the AC/UNU Millennium Project by 10 January 2004. You can either respond on-line or email your response as
