Celebrating a century of action (1908-2008), the 
International Women's Day  and heading towards 2015
The main message of Millennia 2015 is to enhance 
the driving force of women  for the benefit of 
humanity, with foresight as the method and the 
information society as the context. The objective 
is to develop a positive vision of the future for 
all women in the world: Horizon 2015.

The Millennia 2015 process will evolve through 
three events. The first, organized in 2008 in 
Liège, focusses on the Transfer of Information: 
exchange, collection, and analysis of data to 
asses the current situation and to synthesise the challenges.



The second session (working on the Knowledge 
Processes) is planned in Paris in 2011 (at 
UNESCO), and the third session (construction of 
Intelligence Platforms) in New York in 2015 (at the United Nations).



Led by its Scientific Committee and mobilised by 
speakers coming from all continents as well as 
from the United Nations, Millennia 2015 will 
structure its work from local to global level, 
activating networks addressing Internet 
Governance, Foresight and those related to enhancing women's rights.



Millennia 2015 will organise the issues in 
plenary sessions (P) and in workshops (W):



P0- Women as actors of development for the global challenges;

P1- Access to information and knowledge: enhancing capacities for women;

P2- The long-term challenges for women assessed by the Millennium Project;

P3- Cultural and linguistic diversity, women and
