We live in a global society where despite progress in technology and wealth, the difference between the rich and poor, the haves and have-nots is constantly widening. Self-Interest of Corporates and Government Mismanagement is creating an unequal world whereby poverty, injustice and immorality are all on the increase. Consequently, the genuine social welfare of the people is being relegated to a lower importance and to re-address this intellectual, socio-economic and political divide the ‘Thinkers Forum International’ organisation has been established.

Transformation of society and its world outlook requires an in-depth study of human nature and the social infrastructures which bind it, and how they can be systematically, comprehensively changed for the betterment of mankind permanently. TFI endeavours to bring about this comprehensive transformation.

Background

A dedicated team of individuals, students, businessmen and professionals formulated a vision for the community based on many years of experience and as a consequence, Thinkers Forum International (TFI) was established in London, UK in 1997. The organization has developed and expanded organically since its creation encompassing other geographical areas and a broader number of projects.

Thinkers Forum International

TFI has been established to build a more equal, just society by resolving current and future challenges through provision of alternative principled solutions and options for governments, service providers, stakeholders, the community and intelligentsia. Thinkers Forum will achieve this by engaging and informing the debate over public policy issues for the policy makers, the public and the media. Think Tanks play an increasingly crucial role in contributing to the social transformation process by instigating ideas and contributing to a global network of knowledge transfer.
