The same rights for everyone.

I see the future of Europe as a place where fairness, sustainability, and social responsibility are at the heart of society. I hope that single parents receive more support from the state, whether through financial aid, better childcare options, or more flexible work opportunities. Raising a child alone should not mean struggling endlessly, and society should do more to ensure that single parents and their children have the same opportunities as any other family.

Parental leave should also be equally accessible to both parents, allowing them to take time off work without financial stress. In the future, I hope it becomes the norm for both parents to share in the early months of childcare, creating stronger family bonds and a more equal division of responsibilities at home.

At the same time, I believe the influence of social media needs to change. Right now, too many people make money from it in ways that encourage unhealthy lifestyles, unrealistic expectations, and misinformation. I hope that in the future, social media will focus more on meaningful interactions, education, and creativity rather than being a platform for quick money and exploitation.

Another crucial issue is the housing crisis, which is making it harder for people to find a stable home. I hope Europe works toward solutions that make housing more affordable, whether through better policies, sustainable urban planning, or new housing initiatives. Everyone deserves a safe and secure place to live, and this should be a priority for the future.

Most importantly, I hope that my generation and the next will take better care of our planet, protecting nature, animals, and sea creatures from harm. Climate change, pollution, and overfishing are major threats, and we need to take stronger action to reverse the damage. Europe should lead the way in sustainability, ensuring that future generations inherit a world that is healthier, cleaner, and more balanced.

A fairer, more responsible, and more sustainable Europe is the future I hope for.

Thanks for reading. Every little helps. Make this world, a better place.

MOLTA PIU' CULTURA
IAC WOULD LIKE THERE TO BE MORE CULTURAL PROGRAMS-THEATER, CONCERTS AND MUSEUM VISITS WITH AFFORDABLE PRICES FOR EVERYONE. ESPECIALLY I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOUNG PEOPLE FROM THE EARLIEST SCHOOL GRADES BEING DIRECTED TO THESE EVENTS. YOUNG PEOPLE ARE VERY SET ON SOCIAL PROGRAMS SO YOU COULD USE THESE PROGRAMS TO DIRECT THEM TO MORE CULTURE.

In 2040, I live in a United Europe where the current nationality borders have been erased, and are regional borders instead. From north to south, and from east to west, we are connected by high-speed railways that allow us to travel from northern Sweden to southern Europe and vice versa in less than 24 hours. We do not see immigration from non-European countries as a problem, but as a strengthening of our society both economically and culturally. My grandchildren have received a good education and have the freedom to work and raise a family wherever they want. All this is again utopia if I look at my own development from the mid-20th century. and how everything has accelerated. Only we can stop Trump, Musk, Putte, Xi and their supporters who are currently destroying what has been built since the end of the war in 1945.

Postapokaliptična EU
Prihodnost evrope naj bi bila svetla, vendar se zeleni prehod zmeraj bolj pozna na naših denarnicah, ki so že drugače tako napadene od infllacije in t.i. shrinkflacije. Kupna moč pada iz dneva v dan, srednji sloj izpareva, počasi in konstantno. Politika EU vodi vse po domače povedano v rit. Zmeraj bolj so zaščitene manjšine, domačini zmeraj izvisijo pred prišleki. Za leto 2040 si lahko samo predstavljamo kakšno postapokaliptično utopijo, kot jih poznamo iz mnogih survival games. Nebi me čudilo, če bi za novi blatnik na motorju mogel plačati mehaniku z kakšno čudno valuto, kot je na primer 10 palcev, ki so nekdaj pripadali rivalski tolpi. Prihodnost evrope bo zelo temna.

Drosmes un sirsnības nākotne
Es vēlētos, lai nākotne Eiropā un Latvijā būtu droša un attīstoša. Es vēlētos, lai Eiropā un Rietumvalstīs būtu iznīdēts un absolūti nepieņemams imperiālisms, autoritārisms un totalitārisms. Šajā nākotnē Tramps, Masks un Putins ir plaši saprasti kā nicināmi un zemiski cilvēki. Absolūtais vairums cilvēku apzinās no kādas tumsas un briesmām ir sanācis izvairīties un ir pateicīgi izlēmībai, drosmei un empātijai, kas šo ir ļāvušas paveikt. Tāpat ir audzis patiess patriotisms un kopienas sajūta, kas vēsturiski manā valstī, īpaši lielākās pilsētās, ir bijis problemātisks padomju laikam raksturīgās gļēvulības, represiju un apolitiskuma dēļ. Beidzot ir izdevies ierobežot alkohola un azartspēļu lobiju. Es gribētu, lai šajā nākotnē tiek saprasts, ka uzlabot savu kopienu un vidi var tikai sniedzot kādu ieguldījumu vai upuri paši. Es gribu, lai cilvēki iegulda sevī, un viņu apkārtējie no tā saņem dividendes. Es ceru, ka sirsnība, radošums, cieņa, iejūtība un rūpes būs ne tikai epizodiski atzītas, bet fundamentāli svarīgas īpašības mūsu sabiedrībā. Es ceru, ka cilvēki sapratīs, ka palīdzot citiem viņi gūst ko tādu, ko citādi nav iespējams gut.
