Future Generations University is a higher education institution based in Franklin, West Virginia, founded in 2003 with the aim of strengthening the effectiveness of community change practitioners worldwide. The university developed from a UNICEF-sponsored study on successful community development work and the application of SEED-SCALE, a process designed to facilitate local change driven by human energy. Its flagship Master of Arts in Applied Community Development enables mid-career leaders to advance their training while remaining in their own countries, supporting ongoing service to their communities throughout the four-semester program. The school emphasizes global reach, connecting faculty and students from around the world as it offers education that is accessible without relocating to a traditional campus. The organization operates within the higher education industry and serves a diverse international audience, contributing to leadership development and community development initiatives across multiple regions. A recent development noted is ongoing work on Long-term Orientation and Visioning, reflecting continued program evolution and tool development relevant to its mission.
