A future where we all share responsibility for the common good

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Humanity has resolved all conflicts, abolished wars, and opted to live in peace together. To achieve this, nations and powerful people have decided to put their personal interests aside to favour the collective good of all humanity, nature and the planet. Resources are managed so as to be distributed equitably to all, and their exploitation is done for reasonable consumption and no longer for pure financial interest. The divergent points of view underlying conflicts and wars are now discussed in a space where each of the parties concerned has the right to express themselves, where listening is respectful, and where the common interest prevails. Education is accessible and free for all children, art, respect for differences and critical thinking are taught. Diversity among the population is considered an asset and encouraged, no one wants to go back to the privileges granted to some only on the basis of their gender, race, sexual tendency, or any other particular sign. Technology is developed with respect for human, individual and collective rights, and when it becomes a common good, the technology no longer belongs to a private firm which makes profits from it but belongs to the community.

I care about our quality of life.
I care about our quality of life. I believe that we have drifted away from our human nature and consequently from nature/environment, which - let us not forget - we are its species. This of course has an impact on many things and first of all on health. I would like to see human-centred policies implemented in all aspects of everyday citizenship. To put people, their mental health, their personal progress and flourishing first. To pay attention to how satisfied (and why not, happy) people feel about their lives. What really matters to them?
