Quality of living in Greece

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

IN 2040 I imagine Greece to be a country with more green policies when it comes to energy, architecture and production. I would like to see decentralisation of living, with more infrastructure shifted from urban areas to country side, creating smaller pockets of green cities, accessible to and for people with diverse needs and background. Athens is no longer the point of reference, nor where half the population of the country lives. Education in primary and secondary levels is more openminded, incorportated modern concepts of social justice and inclusion, technology and european identity. The main focus of governance should be placing people in its centre, offering functional solutions for quality living. Cost of living at the moment is unberable. Young people in their 20s, and 30s at the moment have not the ability to start family, bear the cost of living alone or create savings. As such, creating incentives and sustaibale living alternatives in countryside, with provision for quality living, would feed back to these issues.

Älter werden im Dorf
I have grown older. Together with my partner, I fulfilled my dream of building another house - after all, there was still room in the garden of the old house! It's not any smaller than the old house, but the layout is better. We have moved into the upper apartment - the office in the basement is no longer needed since we retired from work. It now serves as an apartment when children and grandchildren come to visit. Our neighborhood is constantly changing. Separations and deaths bring change. The houses don't stay empty for long. It is very popular to live in the village. People still look out for each other here and living together works. There are lots of activities for young and old, and most people are keen to get involved in voluntary work. All in all, it's a good place to grow older.

retour à la souveraineté des Etats
that the European Union's powers be reduced in favor of the national states that make it up; that Europe (particularly France) become once again a confederation of states in which the member states cooperate but retain their full sovereignty; that the Commission disappear and that the governance of the EU take the form of regular meetings of the Prime Ministers of the member states + possibly a few Ministers concerned by the subjects under discussion. That the so-called "European Justice" disappears, and that the law applicable in member states depends solely on national parliaments, to the exclusion of any intervention by supranational bodies.
