Today’s most urgent problems are fundamentally global. They require nothing less than concerted, planet-wide action if we are to secure a long-term future. But humanity’s story has always been on a global scale. Seven distinct waves of technological and institutional change, starting with the original settling of the planet by early modern humans through long-distance migration and today’s globalization offer perspective on the ongoing processes taking place in our time – globalization based on digital technologies.

This global virtual conference turns to world history to tell the story of global humanity and shed light on how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of our time, such as preventing conflicts and achieving economic, social and environmental objectives aligned with sustainable development.
