OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

Una vida plena y sin problemas
For I would like it to be a Europe and a Spain without conflicts, with total peace and that there would be employment for everyone who seeks it and deserves it, that remedies would have been found for any disease, both classic and rare, that my children and my grandchildren do not lack anything and are fully happy.

Yhtenäisempi Eurooppa
The war in Ukraine awakened the European state to understand the importance of unity and the speed and fluidity of decision-making. The Member States of the European Union stopped concentrating on obtaining benefits only for their own countries and began to devote their energies to the development of the well-being of Europe as a whole. After Russia lost the war in Ukraine, Russia had to compensate Ukraine for the damage it had caused, and one of the conditions was also to change the governance model from a dictatorship to a democracy. With the change of power, our own citizens began to demand a different policy based on cooperation with the European Union. The process proved to be slow, but with the gradual departure of Soviet leaders, significant progress has already been made by 2040. Advances in renewable energy technologies have made Europe not only completely free of fossil energy, but also self-sufficient. Artificial intelligence has been harnessed for several positive projects, including automatic speech interpretation, where a small microchip allows a person to hear the speech of a person speaking a foreign language in real time in his or her own language and he or she can respond in his or her own language, as the interlocutor also immediately receives interpretation into his or her own language. This technology has helped the immigrant population to integrate into society and find employment.

La Europa que deseo ver
By 2050, I would like Europe to be a prosperous, sustainable and truly united continent. I envision a Europe that is a leader in technological innovation and renewable energy, with smart cities that prioritise the well-being of their inhabitants and the environment. The economy would be based on a circular model, reducing waste and encouraging reuse. I hope for a more equitable society, where education and health care are accessible to all, regardless of their origin. Diversity would be a strength, with policies that foster integration and mutual respect. Europe should be a benchmark in human rights and democracy, but really, not like the current ones, promoting peace inside and outside its borders. In addition, it would like a more connected Europe, with sustainable and efficient transport infrastructures, that reduce the carbon footprint. In short, a green, fair and innovative Europe, where progress goes hand in hand with the well-being of people and the planet, where we do not depend as now on the United States.
