Europe of the future - 2050
I wake up in the morning, and the sun's rays penetrate through the window await me. There is silence outside, interrupted only by bird songs. I turned on my smart mirror, and it shows news about the latest developments in the world - all related to sustainable development and the integration of technology into people's daily lives.
After breakfast, I go to work. The city is no longer congested, as most people move with autonomous electric vehicles. There are no exhaust gases in the air, and the city parks are full of greenery and flowers.
My work is related to artificial intelligence. I am part of a team that develops new medical solutions. We are working to enable faster and more accurate diagnosis of diseases with the help of AI, as well as to develop personalized treatment plans for each patient.
After work, I meet with friends. We go to one of the city's many restaurants, where food is prepared from local and seasonal products. After dinner, we go to a concert with musicians from all over Europe.
The day has been filled with events, but I feel happy and pleased. I live in a Europe focused on sustainable development, technology and human well-being. I hope that in the future Europe will become an even better place to live.
The Story of Change
Between 2025 and 2050, Europe has undergone profound changes. The shared vision and work of citizens, politicians and experts has led to significant progress in many areas:
* Sustainable development: Europe has become a leader in sustainable development. Pollution has been reduced, renewable energy sources have become key and effective solutions for waste recycling have been put in place.
* Technology: Technology is integrated into people's daily lives, making life more comfortable and efficient. Artificial intelligence is used in medicine, education and other fields.
* Social well-being: The well-being of citizens has improved. Poverty and inequality have decreased and everyone has access to quality education and healthcare.
I hope that this story will inspire people to act now to build a better future for Europe.

Přístup k školství
It's 2040, our schools are no longer teaching children an outdated curriculum taught with questionable methods. Our children love going to school and attend school without fear of what will happen. They don't ask questions like, will I be tested in front of the whole class today? Because they won't be tested in 2024. Homework will also no longer be a common occurrence. 8 hours at school should be enough for a child and there should be no need to spend several more hours on homework. In 2040, children will have a chance to be children and not worry about what grades they are getting because we will move to verbal assessment of pupils instead of the traditional grading system as it is more effective and has a positive response from pupils. Classes are also smaller now, which allows the teacher to focus on all their pupils and make sure that everyone really understands the topic being discussed. Children in 2040 are smarter and happier in school than we were for these reasons.

Utopie
The year 2040 could be described as a kind of utopia. No war, no disputes, an economic situation that is favourable for all citizens, as well as an ecological one. Everyone has a well-paid job, and food and goods needed for daily life are affordable for all. People's pensions are paid, and I, too, am assured that I will be able to enjoy my retirement pension in my old age (and that I will have one at all). I don't have to count every penny and my children don't lose out. I don't pay exorbitant property taxes and I don't have to worry about not having a place to live. The state doesn't extort money from me, while at the same time having enough money to ensure a good future for everyone. Also, the people of this state are not being squeezed out of every penny by the state just because they don't want to work. The people of Ukrainian nationality who came to us during the Russian-Ukrainian war have returned back home, where they also live a happy life. Cars still run on petrol and diesel, while being environmentally friendly, but they do not destroy engines. Getting a car is affordable for everyone.

Raj na zemi
People have learnt from the past and have started to be respectful, nice to each other, to help each other, not to cheat. They appreciate nature and help it, develop it. There are fewer cars on the streets. They recycle and have stopped building new buildings - they repair or demolish on top of the old ones. The government cares about the citizens and tries to make them live well,they don't exalt themselves over them, their salaries are the same as the people. They solve problems by conversation without insults, they set an example for the people. Social networks are only for communication between loved ones and for inspiration at work, no earning, ads or influencers.

Bez Putina a Green Dealu máme větší šanci
The situation in Europe from a security point of view has improved - there is a strong "European" army capable of deterring Russia from carrying out further outbursts. Russia is no longer ruled by Putin or his political cronies, and Siberia has separated from Russia as a separate state entity. Europe - after the breakup of the European Union, the influence of Islam in its western states has intensified - there are representatives of Islamist political parties in its parliaments and there is increasing pressure to declare caliphates in individual countries. In the eastern countries, more democratic conditions of governance have been maintained, but the main problem here is not Islamism but the tendency towards an absolutist form of government. Following the revocation of Green Deal policies, the Czech Republic is facing a number of lawsuits from solar operators. The resulting Ukrainian political party is growing in influence.
