As far as health is concerned, I can imagine major advances: drugs will no longer have the place they have today, and we'll be able to treat illness with sounds, vibrations or colors.
We'll certainly be able to age longer and in better shape than we do today.
The infinitely small (cells) that constrain us will be better understood and apprehended. Money in general will no longer have the same impact on people's consciences as it does today, and will be seen as a tool for advancement, not a substitute for, or a means of dominating others.
The basic choice will always be a product that respects the environment and the individual, at a price that is not exaggerated. Empathy, and all other positive human feelings, will be valued during school education, there will no longer be anyone left behind, the choice of professions will be made progressively from kindergarten so that children can change if it doesn't suit them.
Free energy (electro-magnetic) will be widespread, we'll travel further and faster, interstellar travel will be frequent, and tourist trips to near-earth neighborhoods will be a daily occurrence. Expeditions further afield will be decided on a piecemeal basis, taking into account the risks to civilization, disease, invasion, etc...
Human beings will no longer work as hard as they do today, robotics and AI will replace us in thankless tasks. Our activities will be motivated by passion and the pleasure of doing an activity, which means that progress will go much faster, with no more social, physical or international barriers.
A universal wage will be institutionalized across the planet, with very little difference between the lowest and highest levels.
Trade exchanges with other non-aggressive exogenous civilizations will be set up, exchanging technology, commodities and basic materials.

Il mondo che vorrei
In 2040, medicine is technologically advanced, pollution is greatly reduced. There are no limits and barriers, all men are equal, whether black or white. Women have the same rights and possibilities as men. Respect for every living being prevails.

Kurztrip zum Mond
I imagine that in 2025 I will be able to take a spontaneous day trip to the moon with my family. There we can experience the wonders of weightlessness and enjoy a fantastic view of the blue planet, our home, from above. Such a short break far above our usual hemisphere is a very special experience.

Ein Tag im Europa des Jahres 2050
The morning sun bathes the Berlin skyline in a golden light. I open the windows of my energy self-sufficient apartment - built from recycled materials, climate-neutral and fully connected. My personal AI assistant suggests sustainable options for the day: An appointment with an international team in a virtual conference environment, followed by a visit to the urban garden on the roof of our apartment complex. Europe has changed fundamentally since 2025. The transition to a circular economy has been accelerated by political decisions and fossil fuels have long been a thing of the past. Thanks to new technologies and AI-supported automation, society is more flexible and fairer. Education is digital, individualized and available throughout life. Social security systems guarantee a decent life for all. Vehicles drive silently and autonomously on the roads. Public transportation is free, financed by a Europe-wide digital tax. The air is clean, green parks dot the cities. I meet up with friends in a café where food waste no longer exists - everything is used sustainably. As I enjoy the view, I think about the challenges that Europe has overcome: Climate change, social inequality and economic disruption. But by acting together, we have created a future that is more sustainable, fairer and more liveable - for all Europeans.

Un avenir inclusif et solidaire
In 2040, I'd like to see a world where education is truly inclusive and values all pathways, especially vocational education. A system where every student finds his or her place and develops his or her talents, with no hierarchy between streams. Inequalities in access to culture and healthcare would be reduced thanks to ambitious policies. Preventive health care would be a priority, with fair treatment for all. Finally, society would be more ecological, with responsible consumer choices and technological advances serving the common good. A fairer, more united and more respectful world.
