In my future I would like more funding for schools and health care and fewer weapons. Europe would be stronger and more influential in the world economy, not in an overbearing way but to be a support for even the most struggling countries. In my future, diversity will be a matter of course and accepted, not an excuse to be able to marginalize what is different. However, we should not all become equal (in dignity, freedom and rights yes) but learn to value our individuality and that of others. In my future, Europe will value the cultures of every country on the continent. Culture will not be a means by which we "prove ourselves superior to others," but a treasure to be shared and known. In addition, the problem of pollution will finally be addressed and fought with all the necessary tools, not with empty promises and indifference.

La société en 2040
Society in 2040 is more tolerant, with individuals less individualistic, but with a real awareness of the importance of "forming society", of being a community of solidarity, responsible for its future and its environment. Man has realized that he can be the key to his own salvation. Individuals are now more involved on a daily basis in helping others, preserving the environment and sharing wealth. Individual aspirations have given way to a collective, voluntary dynamic. Everyone is involved at his or her own pace, providing help, a gesture or time for an environmental or social cause. The economy is no longer based solely on personal enrichment, but values work and investment.

Das Jahr 2040
The year is 2040 and we live in a time when people have understood that war is not a solution. After the USA and China have proven to the world that they have power, peace reigns. Unfortunately, people can no longer live everywhere without problems due to weather disasters. There are more and more periods of heat and therefore drought. The world is constantly changing.

vivre simplement
In 2040, I'd like us to still be able to live in nature, to still be present, to still be in good health. I'd like my family to be able to continue to live in complete freedom, to maintain the French traditions that we hold so dear, to preserve the heritage that has made our country what it is, and for everyone to be able to live together in complete safety.
