The Future website was created with thoughts of the future. It contains reflections on topics such as tolerance, respect and dialogue. The web page includes educational materials or links to them, which can assist educators in teaching about tolerance and multiculturalism, as well as information about interesting events, initiatives and ideas that focus on promoting tolerance and inter-cultural dialogue, and that take an active stand against xenophobia and racism. The site has examples of activities, up-to-date news, and a gallery. Visitors to the site can make their own suggestions, add information and share their own opinions.
Future emerged out of a project under "Dialogue for the Future", a two-year program funded by the Ford Foundation, supporting valuable initiatives promoting the idea of dialogue, especially between Poles and Jews. The Future website is included on the Polish NGO website, www.ngo.pl.
