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?

Whole self, whole society transformation.
I would like all of us to be able to bring our whole selves, including families and stories to the collective work that we need to do to really transform our societies. Work is whatever society deems as needing to be done rather than just what is likely to create more financial resources. Transformational work includes all parts of society in any given location and we have good ways of making everyone feel welcome and needed as part of this work.

Teaming up with our future
The world changes quickly, the tech advances really fast, the level of uncertainty for people working is really high. I would like to help people to be able to cope with change with less pain, to find a meaningful way to contribute and to be able to establish relations that help each other to use the collective intelligence. With these capabilities we will be able to thrive in our work and live and to cross collaborate with other industries and cultures.

Discourse (Discourse)
My better world is a world with less violence. Less hurtful words and less hurtful actions. In my world, people have insight into complex issues. They are not afraid to tap into these issues. And they are helped to do so. The tool: Talking to each other. Listing. Recognising that Colorful (multi-perspective) is more alive and fruitful than gray (one-dimensional).

The Community (Skupnost)
I want more people-to-people cooperation at local level, greater cohesion and community care. First and foremost, helping people at individual level, adapting to individual needs. I want as many people as possible to volunteer to help individuals in my community. E.g. helping elderly people, people with disabilities and dugs to deliver food from the shop, transport. Helping children learn, volunteering in schools to carry out sport and other activities organised by the school...
