If we think about the year 2040, we can dream of a world full of technological and social advances that improve our quality of life and that of our community. First of all, I would like to see a more sustainable and environmentally friendly society. I imagine green cities with efficient public transport and electric vehicles, where energy comes from renewable sources such as solar and wind. The buildings would be smart and self-sufficient, with advanced recycling and waste management systems. In terms of health, I hope that advances in personalized medicine and biotechnology will allow for more effective and accessible treatments for all. Telemedicine and real-time health monitoring devices could be common, facilitating access to health care and improving disease prevention. Education could also be radically transformed. I imagine a more inclusive education system adapted to the individual needs of each student, supported by technologies such as virtual reality and artificial intelligence. This would allow for a more personalized and accessible education, regardless of geographical location. In the workplace, I hope that remote and flexible work will be the norm, allowing a better balance between personal and professional life. Advanced collaboration technologies would facilitate remote teamwork, and automating repetitive tasks would free up time for more creative and rewarding activities. Finally, I would like to see a more united and supportive community, where diversity is celebrated and everyone has equal opportunities. Technology could play a crucial role in creating platforms that encourage citizen participation and volunteering, strengthening the social fabric.

Differences between states in the European Union will be balanced, there will be equal salaries everywhere and the same prices in shops, there will be free health care and medicines for children and pensioners, working hours will be reduced to 4 days a week, the use of cash will be abolished altogether, we will drive in vehicles without drivers and it will be free …

One day the whole world got up, took to the streets and protested all the shit that politicians and the economic system had imposed on us. People started coming out who really cared about people, and who really wanted to change the world. I don't know how, because I'm neither a politician nor an economist, but after a brief time of chaos, everything was reorganized in a fairer way for the whole society of the whole world, the wealth was redistributed so that everyone could have a decent salary for their work and that there could not be rich so rich or poor so poor, nor people living off the tale. All energy came from sustainable sources, and animals were treated with all the respect and dignity they deserve, so climate change began to subside. As in all times of solvency, when people are calm with their own, they do not get into other people's affairs and wars also disappeared, conflicts were resolved in the offices. Anyway, a happy world.

I dream of a Europe in which the people of each country are free to decide their future. They will not be pushed to make decisions "in the only right way. They delegate only the things they want to do themselves to a centre that will not be one big bureaucratic colossus.
