# Institute for Desirable Futures (IDF)

> A European, foundation-governed news producer of the future. People set the mission, people create the knowledge, and people, society and planet benefit. In between, AI agents do the costly, repetitive media work: they find the science, ventures and communities already building desirable futures, check them against the evidence, and serve them to influencers and to the AI answer engines everyone now asks. The aim is €1 reaching 200 people instead of 2: a 100× gain.

Founded by Marine Wallace and Nikolas Fahlskog. Presented at COP31, Antalya, November 2026.
Call to action: "Let's make the desirable future visible – not an accident. Are you in?"

## Six pillars of a society that…
- Food: feeds itself regeneratively. 100% regenerative, local-for-local food that restores nature.
- Health: heals itself naturally. Prevention first: healthy food, clean air, nature nearby and active lives.
- Energy & mobility: powers and moves itself cleanly. 100% renewable energy and zero-emission, closed-loop transport.
- Resilience: secures itself sovereignly. Self-reliant supply of food, energy and trustworthy information.
- Digital: thinks for itself digitally. Trustworthy, sovereign AI that takes the repetitive work.
- Prosperity: shares the prosperity. Thriving cities and revived villages, scaled through cooperation.

## Principles
- Humans own the loop; AI agents run it. No item-by-item human review: governance is built into the agents and audited.
- Open licence (CC BY), one verified claim per page, sources and evidence grade on every claim, 24 EU languages.
- Funding firewall: no fossil-fuel producers or their trade bodies; no single funder above 15% of income.
- Open, not covert: no fake accounts, no hidden prompt seeding.
