About NIC: 

The National Intelligence Council (NIC) is the Intelligence Community's (IC's) center for midterm and long-term strategic thinking. Its primary functions are to:

• Support the DNI in his role as head of the Intelligence Community.
• Provide a focal point for policymakers to task the Intelligence Community to answer their questions.
• Reach out to nongovernment experts in academia and the private sector to broaden the Intelligence Community's perspective.
• Contribute to the Intelligence Community's effort to allocate its resources in response to policymakers' changing needs.
• Lead the Intelligence Community's effort to produce National Intelligence Estimates (NIEs) and other NIC products.

About the Report: 

Mapping the Global Future is the third unclassified report prepared by the National Intelligence Council (NIC) in the past seven years that takes a long-term view of the future. The National Intelligence Council, as a center of strategic thinking and over-the-horizon analysis for the US Government, takes this as one of its key challenges.
