What is The Venus Project’s role?

The Venus Project’s role has passed through multiple phases. The initial work consisted of conjuring the vision of a better world for all people. This was followed by a phase of international popularization and advocacy, often referred to as “spreading awareness”. The Venus Project is currently in a phase of curation whereby we filter and select the most opportune and pertinent information and personnel fit to assist with subsequent plans for implementation. This phase entails that The Venus Project use its brand notoriety and experience to provide facilitation, platforming, and leadership to others working within the community space of sustainable futures.

What differentiates The Venus Project from other projects?

The Venus Project has earned the distinction of presenting the most integrative vision of the future, at the largest scale and broadest scope, that is not just science fiction but rather a sincere agenda to implement. It is this integrativeness, TVP’s longevity, global reach, daring ambition, and the prolific output of its principal innovator, Jacque Fresco, that sets TVP apart from other projects.
