Globally we face a daunting array of large scale problems. Many are driven by population growth and exacerbated by poor governance. There are unprecedented demands on scarce natural resources-land, water, minerals and energy. There are serious threats to food security, the environment and public health.

The community is invited to engage with the leading thinkers about these current issues.
