The Long Now Institute

The Long Now Institute is an organization that encourages long-term thinking to address global challenges. Founded in 1996, its goal is to promote awareness of the importance of considering time spans of thousands of years, rather than just the short-term focus prevalent in many areas today. The institute hosts discussions, supports projects, and develops initiatives, like the 10,000-Year Clock, to inspire a mindset that values sustainability, foresight, and responsibility for future generations. By fostering a more expansive perspective on time, it aims to help individuals and societies make better decisions now for the long-term benefit of humanity.
