International Leadership Forum
- International Leadership Forum
The International Leadership Forum (ILF) is a non-partisan, Internet-based think tank composed of policy leaders. The Forum participants participate in online policy forums to discuss the major issues facing global society.
The ILF evolved from the Western Behavioral Sciences Institute (WBSI), building on the Institute’s work in the creation of online communities. WBSI was founded in 1958 as an independent, non-profit organization devoted to research, education and advanced study in human affairs. Current projects apply global communications technology to distance learning, policymaking, and the formation of influential communities of scholars, scientists and leaders.
The International Leadership Forum currently maintains 2 websites that feature commentaries by a core group of Fellows of the ILF. The ILF Digest is a bi-monthly ezine and the ILF Post is a twice weekly blog.
Participants include former US Ambassador to NATO Harlan Cleveland, author/filmmaker Michael Crichton, anthropologist Mary Catherine Bateson, psychoanalyst Douglass Carmichael, Biospherian Jane Poynter, survey researcher Daniel Yankelovich, former president of Planned Parenthood Gloria Feldt, actress and former Chairman of the National Endowment of the Arts Jane Alexander, Yale economist and political scientist Charles Lindblom, author Ralph Keyes, former FCC commissioner Nicholas Johnson. Participants also include other ILF Fellows and guest experts.
