The Age of Culture Project
Advancing the foundations of long-term human progress
The Age of Culture (TAOC) is a global cultural initiative grounded in a simple but urgent recognition: culture is not a side concern of society; it is the organising context that shapes how we learn, govern, create, and live together.
The Age of Culture Project
The Age of Culture Project brings together long-term thinking, interdisciplinary knowledge, and institutional collaboration to examine how human progress is shaped across generations.
HORIZON is the cultural stewardship council of The Age of Culture Project, holding the long view as its work unfolds. It brings together thinkers, institution-builders, and practitioners to provide guidance, continuity, and ethical orientation across research, studios, and partnerships.
Horizon Council
The Library of Alexandria is the learning and knowledge heart of The Age of Culture (Coming Soon). A living repository for knowledge, inquiry, and long-term understanding.
The Library of Alexandria
The Age of Culture, written by D. Paul Schafer, is the intellectual point of origin for The Age of Culture Project. The book articulates a long-term cultural worldview, one that challenges development models dominated by economics alone and argues for culture as the deeper framework shaping human values, institutions, and futures.
