The year is 2040, global fires are complicating the lives of the still growing world population, it is getting warmer and the glaciers of the world are completely gone. Sea levels have risen significantly and continue to rise, coastal cities are under increasing pressure from ever-increasing water masses. Machines are increasingly taking over the tasks of humans and are becoming ever more intelligent, the CO₂ values in the Earth's atmosphere have long exceeded a critical level.

The gift of medicine
The year is 2040, and medicine worldwide is highly advanced. Humans no longer fear certain diseases, as vaccines have been developed for them. Cancer is already highly treatable and is no longer a death sentence as it was in the near past. There are even talks for further development of a special anti-cancer vaccine which should be produced in the following years. The life expectancy of human beings is estimated to be more than a hundred years with a prediction to reach even more in the following decades. Mental illnesses that were not completely treatable like schizophrenia will be due to our advanced understanding of the human brain. Nanotechnologies, such as robotics will further help in treating serious illnesses and during operations.

Moderno , livre, limpo. E responsável
A modern and humane world. It would be a world that invites people to expand their knowledge and experience. Where self-confidence and a desire to evolve are built up day by day, where one "is" more than one "has". Where the individual seeks to reconcile participation in the community with meaningful reflection. The next future will be one in which we will be masters of matter, but we will also be masters of spirit. There will be abundance, because we will be able to spend less on what doesn't matter. There will be no "entertainment", but art, no war but competition for excellence There will be no forced solitude, no prison, but re-education. There will be no violence, no dirt, no exploitation, because there will be no central government. Only communities where mechanical jobs are done by robots.

Το σχολείο του μέλλοντος
Education will be more child-centred and will be delivered using modern and asynchronous teaching tools. It will assess all aspects of human potential and not just specific functions of intelligence as at present. It will equip the future adult with all the necessary skills to be able to cope with all the challenges of modern life and everyday life.
