Three organizations – GESDA, GCSP and SIPA at Columbia - have joined forces to anticipate what this may mean for the future of peace and war.\n\n<ImageAsset slug=\"peace-war-event-logos\" />\n\nOne area where change is unfolding at an unprecedented pace is in science and technology, in fields such as advanced artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, genome editing, or synthetic biology. These developments have cumulative consequences unseen before. They are reshaping altogether who we are, how we relate to each other and interact with the environment, our planet and its resources.\n\nDuring the past year, the **Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA)** has consulted over 1200 scientists globally about which scientific advances in the coming 5, 10 and 25 years could have strong implications on the individual, our societies and the planetary ecosystem. This anticipatory mapping is described in the Science Breakthrough Radar and provides an overview of some of the scientific emerging topics which require significant anticipation and attention from world leaders.\n\nThe **Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP)** was established in 1985 and is an international foundation serving a global community of individuals and organisations.  Its mission is to advance peace, security and international cooperation.  It provides the knowledge, skills and network for effective and inclusive decision-making through executive education, diplomatic dialogue, research and policy advice. It has long focused on building leadership skills and knowledge to secure peace. It has recently strengthened its work in strategic foresight as a means of navigating growing uncertainty and ever more rapid change. It is also developing expertise in the future of warfare.\n\nThe **Columbia University’s SIPA Kent Leadership Programme on Conflict Resolution** is the new programme led by the former UN Under Secretary-General for UN Peacekeeping, Prof. Jean-Marie Guéhénno which helps prepare the next generation of global practitioners for the complexities of contemporary and future conflict. As the evolution of conflict calls for new thinking, the Kent Program is exploring innovative responses, among them how to harness the power of public institutions, civil society and business so that they form a \"Golden Triangle\" that contributes effectively to conflict resolution and peaceful societies. The program combines the knowledge and academic rigor of the faculty of Columbia University with the experience of practitioners who can share the real-life situations they are confronting;\n\nThe latter two institutions contributed reflections to GESDA’s 2022 Science Breakthrough Radar, with their own initial anticipatory reflections about the future of peace and war: [Warfare at the Technological Edge](https://radar.gesda.global/trends/invited-contributions/the-future-of-peace-and-war-warfare-at-the-technological-edge) and [The vital role of debate and difference](https://radar.gesda.global/trends/invited-contributions/the-future-of-peace-and-war-the-vital-role-of-debate-and-difference).\n\nWhile these contributions provide a first glimpse of a possible future, tools to anticipate the future of peace and war are less well developed than in many other fields. This project aims at developing the methodological frameworks and tools to better identify the relevant trends and counter-trends shaping the future of peace and war. This requires  understanding the major current lines of thoughts within the field and identifying the fundamental questions they raise about the future of peace and war.\n\nStarting with an initial series of workshops in Geneva and New York  , and culminating with a dedicated session at GESDA’s high level science and diplomacy anticipation summit in October 2023, this work will lead to the establishment of a permanent forum advising high level policy makers on the nature of future conflicts and the ways to address them.\n\n## Meeting venue\nThe Maison de la Paix is a place to meet, to think and to act. Opened in 2013, it enables synergies fostering innovative and efficient solutions to promote peace, human security and sustainable development. It is located in the heart of international Geneva, which strengthens its role and outreach on a national and global scale.\n\nOwned by the [Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies](http://graduateinstitute.ch/home.html), the [Maison de la paix](http://graduateinstitute.ch/maisondelapaix) is one of Western Switzerland’s contemporary architectural achievements.\n\n**La Maison de la Paix**\nChemin Eugène-Rigot 2D, building ‘Pétale 4’ \n1202 Geneva, Switzerland \n\nGeneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP) \n5th-floor conference room\nhttp://www.maisondelapaix.ch/en/"},"overview":{"text":"The GESDA approach to anticipating future developments in science relies on the predictions of scientists of developments and breakthroughs that will be impactful in 5, 10 and 25 years.

It will happen under Chatham House Rules and will take the form of a moderated debate on the themes selected.\n"},"image":{"thumbnails":{"bubble":{"url2x":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_128/v1668980928/gesda-22/banner/banner-2-2-2-gene-therapies-enhancement_thumbnail__TRR-2_2_2-STM-01.jpg","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_64/v1668980928/gesda-22/banner/banner-2-2-2-gene-therapies-enhancement_thumbnail__TRR-2_2_2-STM-01.jpg"},"card":{"url2x":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_960/v1668980928/gesda-22/banner/banner-2-2-2-gene-therapies-enhancement_thumbnail__TRR-2_2_2-STM-01.jpg","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_480/v1668980928/gesda-22/banner/banner-2-2-2-gene-therapies-enhancement_thumbnail__TRR-2_2_2-STM-01.jpg"}}}}},{"id":"65c55ccf9e947c438698a495","name":"Swiss GESDA Anticipation Day in Zurich","path":"/events/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich","startDate":"2023-05-17T00:00:00.00","endDate":"2023-05-17T00:00:00.00","slug":"swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich","__typename":"Platform_Event","_schema":{"label":"Event","pluralLabel":"Events"},"title":null,"subtitle":null,"description":{"text":"Use the future to build the present – from science anticipation to global action"},"overview":{"text":""},"sessionInfo":{"text":""},"venue":null,"location":null,"endDateTimeZone":null,"startDateTimeZone":null,"banner":{"id":"66fba54333c67eaee3de24c1","name":"Swiss GESDA Anticipation Day in Zurich","slug":"swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich","title":null,"description":{"text":""},"alternateText":null,"thumbnail":{"id":"image_gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/v1727767867/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk.jpg","type":"image/jpeg","width":5616,"height":3744},"image":{"id":"image_gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_image__Zurich_enzbgh","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/v1727767858/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_image__Zurich_enzbgh.jpg","type":"image/jpeg","width":5616,"height":3744}},"images":[],"isVirtual":null,"color":null,"openGraph":{"description":{"plain":"Use the future to build the present – from science anticipation to global action\n"},"image":{"thumbnails":{"bubble":{"url2x":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_128/v1727767867/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk.jpg","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_64/v1727767867/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk.jpg"},"card":{"url2x":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_960/v1727767867/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk.jpg","url":"https://res.cloudinary.com/shapeable/image/upload/c_limit,w_480/v1727767867/gesda-platform/banner/swiss-gesda-anticipation-day-in-zurich_thumbnail__Zurich_w5jmhk.jpg"}}}}},{"id":"65c55ccf9e947c438698a496","name":"Villars High Level Anticipation Workshop on Neuro Augmentation","path":"/events/villars-high-level-anticipation-workshop-on-neuro-augmentation","startDate":"2023-03-20T00:00:00.00","endDate":"2023-03-22T00:00:00.00","slug":"villars-high-level-anticipation-workshop-on-neuro-augmentation","__typename":"Platform_Event","_schema":{"label":"Event","pluralLabel":"Events"},"title":"Villars High Level Anticipation Workshop on Neuro Augmentation","subtitle":"20-22 March 2023, Villars Palace, Switzerland","description":{"text":""},"overview":{"text":"The inaugural Villars high level Anticipation Workshop brings together an exclusive and carefully chosen group of leaders in science from across the world to review, discuss in depth and anticipate impactful developments in neuro-augmentation, with a 25 years perspective, in order to address the fundamental issues they raise. \n\n## General introduction to the workshop\n\nUnder the roof of Neuro Augmentation, the workshop focuses on enhancement of brain functions in three interdisciplinary themes:\n\n1. **Brain Hacking** – reading in the brain\n2. **Hybrid Brains** – chimeras and non-human primate transgenesis, brain capacity enhancement through genetic engineering, transplantation of neuro-organoids\n3. **Artificial Cognition** – robotics with neural-based and brain-inspired AI\n\n## Workshop Venue\nThe Villars Palace and Victoria Residence provide a unique venue with state-of-the-art conference facilities in the Swiss Alps.

Less well discussed are how rapidly evolving changes to the planet, combined with the increasing ability to reach habitats we have never explored before, are providing more opportunities than ever for comprehensively understanding and ultimately designing diverse ecosystems. \n\nFuture advances in our understanding of the components of ecosystems, their interactions and evolutionary dynamics, combined with progress in genomics, synthetic biology and data science, will allow novel interventions at the scale of entire ecosystems.

By employing these tools, scientists\nbelieve that it will be possible to assist or confer new traits to existing ecosystems, restore ecosystems\nthat are in decline or to create entirely new ecosystems with novel functions. In short, by adopting\ntools from the most advanced scientific fields that exist now and in the future, **it is possible to\nenvision a future where essential functions for humanity**, such as water purification, disease\nmitigation, food production and manufacturing, **are undertaken by self-sustaining ecosystems\npowered by sunlight and water – to the benefit of all**.\n\nAt GESDA, we have termed this vision for a sustainable and ecosystem-enhanced future “**ecoaugmentation**”.\nSpecifically, we consider eco-augmentation as any activity that leads to:\n1. An increase in the diversity (i.e. heterogeneity) within – or of – ecosystems\n2. An increase in the functions of ecosystems\n\n## The challenge\nThe extraordinarily complex nature of the myriad ecosystems on Earth, from the community of microorganisms\nwhich live in our guts to the tightly interconnected ocean and terrestrial systems, mean\nthat our understanding of how to use the tools for engineering biology and what their effects may\nbe is lagging far behind our ability to act. This highlights the importance of addressing our current\nknowledge gaps to avoid catalysing undesirable change or missing key opportunities. Understanding\nhow networks of biological and physical entities within any given ecosystem interact and evolve will\nbe crucial for unlocking the potential of shaping ecosystems for global good and for making informed\ndecisions about the risks and benefits of introducing new factors into an ecosystem.\n\n## The opportunities\nIn order to realise the vision of a future enhanced by eco-augmentation, it will be essential to take a\nwholistic, systems-change approach which embraces anticipatory global governance, a world\neconomy that recognises and is reactive to the value of complex biological ecosystems, and the\nacceleration of the generation of knowledge for how ecosystems at any scale – both natural and\nsynthetic – function and evolve.\n\nWhen considering global governance, existing international treaties on biodiversity and ecosystems\npreservation, such as the Convention on Biological Diversity established in 1992 and the two\ncomplementary international agreements, the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety and the Nagoya\nProtocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits, have been\novertaken by advances in science and technology and are no longer able to act as adequate guides\nfor governing activities related to biological ecosystems. For example, the Nagoya Protocol does not\nhave any provisions for the regulation of digital biological information such as DNA sequences, so\nissues of ownership, privacy, compensation and licensing are all left to individual actors.\n\nAs new technologies and assets are identified and developed, this problem is only becoming more\nacute, hindering the effective, equitable and inclusive deployment of technologies and approaches\nfor ecosystem preservation, restoration and enhancement. Furthermore, there is a need for concrete\ndefinitions of robustness and complexity of functioning ecosystems which would be necessary for\nthe creation of a bioeconomy.\n\nFinally, the many researchers engaged in understanding ecosystem dynamics and function have\nemerged from separate communities to those developing tools that could be used for direct\nintervention. Bridging such gaps between diverse fields of research would immediately open new\npossibilities for understanding ecosystem structure and function, and ultimately accelerate our\nability to design rational interventions.\n\n## A proposed solution\nAny solution which acts to accelerate eco-augmentation must:\n\n1. **Advance science and technology breakthroughs that transform the way we understand ecosystems and how we could act on them** by bringing together diverse\nresearch communities, reconciling the latest approaches in ecology with advanced molecular techniques, and combining new powers in mathematical modelling with a deep\nunderstanding of evolutionary forces.\n2. **Incorporate a forward-looking approach to establish an updated, future-proof mechanism of global governance** for biodiversity monitoring and ecosystem restoration.\n3. **Embed a financial and economic system that provides the incentive and business case for private sector involvement**, that can extend even beyond the scope of the specific\nsolution. The creation of conditions for a biodiversity economy are needed to kick start a positive feedback loop for public-private development and deployment of ecoaugmentation\ninterventions.\n\nHere, we propose the establishment of a new entity, based on the idea of an expanded ‘global eco- ARPA’ (eco-Advanced Research Projects Agency). This agency would act to accelerate:\n1. Educational and technology capacity building in relation to eco-augmentation\n2. Diplomacy and international cooperation in the field of eco-augmentation\n3. Economic incentive definition and modelling\n4. Science and research to increase our knowledge and capacity for eco-augmentation\n\n## Aims of the workshop\nGESDA initiated first reflections on a new vision for eco-augmentation at the 2024 GESDA Villars Anticipation Workshop, which acted to identify key opportunities for research in this area. The workshop at the 2024 GESDA Science and Diplomacy Anticipation Summit will bring together a small number of experts to formulate the full scope of a proposed ecoaugmentation solution to create a shared vision for the initiative.\n\nThis workshop aims to:\n1. **Form a collective understanding of eco-augmentation** as a global and transdisciplinary endeavour.\n2. **Identify and develop use cases for eco-augmentation**.\n3. **Formulate a global vision for a solution to accelerate the knowledge and understanding required for eco-augmentation** to benefit humans, society and the planet."},"overview":{"text":"GESDA initiated first reflections on a new vision for eco-augmentation at the 2024 GESDA Villars\nAnticipation Workshop, which acted to identify key opportunities for\nresearch in this area.

Operating on multiple scales, from molecules to whole ecosystems, its development promises not only breakthroughs in fundamental biology, but potential applications of the technology have roles in addressing many of the challenges facing humanity – both today and in the future. \n\nFor example, there is considerable potential to improve manufacturing, industry and agriculture, enabling the development of new technologies such as bioelectronics and the creation of new materials. Bioplastics created from living organisms could replace at least some plastics from fossil fuels. Synthetic pesticides and gene drives may reduce crop losses and also cut costs. Within healthcare, synthetic biology can help to develop genetic therapies for inherited diseases, to engineer new medicines and to design new cancer therapies. Emerging applications in the field of energy, climate and conservation include engineering at-risk organisms to be more resilient against environmental change and using micro-organisms to produce zero-carbon fuels such as green hydrogen. One exciting future application of synthetic biology is in the design of whole ecological systems providing essential and novel functions that are robust to Earth’s rapidly changing climate – an application GESDA has termed ‘eco-augmentation’.

The discovery of viable microorganisms in ancient ice, advances in recombinant protein technologies for snow and ice nucleation, and the intersection of cryosphere science with synthetic biology promise transformative applications – from preserving vital glacial ecosystems to reimagining water security and climate intervention strategies.
