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?

The sustainability of the planet (Η βιωσιμότητα του πλανήτη)
The future I dream is respectful of the planet and the environment. Citizens love their ‘home’ and want to pass it on to their children. Decision-makers feel obliged to meet this desire – this is also their own vision.

A different planet - a different life
I imagine a planet that we will respect more the nature, with alternative sources of energy. Our planet will have stopped being overheated, the sky will continue to be blue and the seas will be nice to swim in. We will have sufficient food and water for the people, as we will have found new ways of agricultural. Technology will have led to energy balance, as new way of work will have risen. We will travel mainly for pleasure and less for work - as we will have the option to work from anywhere. we will have understood that our home, our planet will need more respect, in terms of energy and spending

Civil society (Κοινωνία των πολιτών)
Very important to me is the issue of democracy in a society and civic participation. I would like citizens to be more involved, not least in the protection of the natural environment but also in the transparency of institutions.
