Why a change in the school system means a revolution in the world

Warum eine Veränderung des Schulsystems eine Revolution der Welt bedeutet

This worlds progression and therefore the future of human kind is in a great measure determined by our school system. The manner of how kids shape their own life and future very much depends on school years experiences which define them. If they are taught skills and competences, which actually prepare them for living in the 21th century, they will be able to shape a desirable future. But if kids still get taught with principles from the last centuries, you cannot expect them to be capable of creating a future worth living. The responsabilty for a change of the education system lies in our hands and it’s about time that everyone is fully aware of this responsability.

Love More – What one year abroad taught me

Liebe mehr – Was mir ein Jahr im Ausland beigebracht hat

Ein Jahr in einem anderen, fremden Land hat mir mehr Dinge über mich selbst, Liebe und die Bedeutung von Freundschaft beigebracht als alle sechzehn Jahre zuvor zusammen. Manchmal muss du erst richtig aus deiner eigenen Haut heraus um zu merken, wer du wirklich bist, was die Dinge sind, die dir WIRKLICH wichtig sind und dass du dir Familie aussuchen kannst. Ich rede über die Kraft der Freundschaft und ihren Verlust und wie, selbst wenn wir jemanden verlieren oder unendlich weit von ihm getrennt sind, wir doch stets miteinander verbunden sein werden, weil man solche Verbindungen nie wieder aus dem Herzen herauskriegt. Eine Geschichte über Freundschaft und Verlust und wie Liebe das einzige ist, was wir im Leben wirklich brauchen.

Hoffnung in dunklen Zeiten

How to hope in dark times

Social change activists are very good at talking about what they are against, but less good at selling the change they want to see to the wider public. Their emotional tools tend to be fear, outrage and disgust, but neuroscience shows us that if we want more empathy in the world – we need people to feel more hope and joy and even humour! My idea, hope-based communications, involves five simple shifts in the way we think and speak that anyone can apply in order to better promote the world we want. Using it, activists can change the narrative in debates to make their proposals “common sense” and create the passionate public support without which big change cannot happen. To that end, Progressives need to be as effective in using modern communications to trigger hope as populists are at triggering fear.
