About Us

The Future Generations Graduate School, a 501(c)3 non-profit institution of higher education, is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and a member of the North Central Association (www.ncahlc.org, ph: 800-621-7440).

Future Generations Graduate School, founded in 2003 as the educational arm of Future Generations (www.future.org), offers a two-year Master's Degree in Applied Community Change and Conservation. The Graduate School also supports multi-year research initiatives in community-based approaches to conservation, child health, and peacebuilding.

Since 2003, the Graduate School has trained community leaders from 31 countries and graduated four classes of students.

The Master’s Degree in Applied Community Change and Conservation builds the skills and capacity of mid-career community leaders. Instead of relocating to a campus, students remain in their own countries and continue serving their communities throughout the two-year program.

The program blends three instructional modes: on-site field residentials for one month each term, online learning, and an applied practicum (thesis) project in each student’s community.
