In an ideal future, education of the next generation should be the top priority. Investing in the education of children and young people, as well as of adults, can ensure that democratic values remains at the centre of our society, social bonds are reinforced, green values grow up as part of people's everyday, digitization is an opportunity for all and disinformation/polarization loose power. An educated generation can embrace changes, has opportunities to bloom and can contribute to a prosperous society. We see today that demcracy is loosing strenght and people seem not be caring too much about this, they are more concerned about their present: they do not have the capability to think long term. This is reflected also in political choices.
