By 2040, the standby where I live could have evolved and grown. In the city of my dreams I have the opportunity to stay in the center where the beach has grown. The city centre has become more vibrant as the city has become denser in the centre. Many empty spaces have been built with more and larger homes where even families with children can get a place in the center. The number of central playgrounds has increased. More small spaces for meetings have been created. As more people have now chosen to live in the city centre, the range of shops has increased. The opening hours of the city's existing cafes have increased and more cafes, bars and smaller restaurants have arisen as a spontaneous reaction to the city's increased population who want to meet in social rooms outside their residence where opportunities are given to socialize with your loved ones while at the same time being given an opportunity to meet new acquaintances. Imagine taking your knitting and going out to buy a cup of coffee and sit down and suddenly spontaneously get company from others with the same or similar interests. Imagine that a lukewarm summer evening after work take his book and go out and sit in some backyard drinking wine and end the evening with a deep discussion of the events in the book together with someone else a little lonely himself who also read the same book.

A future of support and care gor each others wellbeing and mental health

In 2040, Europe has blossomed into a society where kindness is the foundation of everyday life. People naturally support each other’s mental health, treating one another with compassion, patience, and respect. Bullying, cruelty, and exclusion have faded into the past, replaced by communities where empathy and understanding are taught from childhood. Workplaces, schools, and public spaces are filled with encouragement, and mental well-being is nurtured as carefully as physical health. Neighbors look out for one another, strangers offer warmth, and love and solidarity are the true currencies of the future.

My vision of the European Union is a Union of tolerance and understanding, where people can actively listen to each other, regardless of age, gender, race, nationality or other factors. In this EU, from a young age, at all levels of education, children will be guided not to memorise and pressure on performance as human stands, but will be more encouraged to use different sources of information, including digital books, but to learn through intergenerational sharing of knowledge and experience between children, parents, grandparents and educational institutions : Primary schools, secondary schools, colleges, universities, leisure centers, social services facilities and so on. Thanks to the automation of many processes, people will not be so pushed into performances, but they will have more time to care for each other if, for example, someone gets sick or finds themselves in a difficult life situation. I dream, also, of a future where healthy competition among people in school collectives, at work, but also among people in personal life will remain, but will be limited by ethical principles of decency, kindness and emotional intelligence. The teacher will no longer be the owner of the truth, he will lead his students to critical thinking using various tools and technologies. I would like society to be less polarised in 20 years, to focus on what unites us, not what divides us. I dream of a modern and progressive world that will be more accepting and where people will be people again.

I would like to see a change in attitudes towards education in order to improve the chances of life for future generations.
