This brochure gives a general overview of the Dia-Logos project.
The first section, entitled "One World", gathers the latest available data on population per country and city, and a map representing the size and density of the world's greatest cities.
The second section, entitled "A plural project for one world", describes the scope and the aims of the project itself.
The third section presents the scientific tools being developed for the project and the fourth section the team that has brought the project to life, and their motivations for doing so.
The brochure is illustrated with a score of astonishing color pictures and maps with peculiar representations of the world as we know it. Or do we?

This is what Dia-Logos is all about: making a more knowlegeable world emerge.

This brochure provides a full version of the founding text for the Dia-Logos project.
Prof. Jacques Levy's words describe with vivid detail what the world of social sciences, the world of scientific research and the world at large can be and must be, if society is to find the answers it needs to face the challenge of building "a plural project for one world".
A special section is dedicated to the GlobLab, a mobile innovative mechanism consisting of a hybrid workshop-forum with both global and local dimensions, that will travel across the globe's major metropolises in order to listen first-handedly to the world's echoes of the future.
