12 things we will have to rethink for when we get through the Coronavirus health emergency
Rethinking Society
We have a society held together by a thread, a society without a Plan B. We live day to day, and no one is planning for the future. Society has feet of clay.
+ Science – Football
During these days of lockdown, we see that we can live without football. It makes no sense that some footballers earn more money in a year than 4.000 scientists.
Fake News
Fake news and lies lead to misinformation, a distorted perception of reality, and bad decisions.
– Politicians + Professionals
In recent years, it has been observed that many politicians come to power with no experience whatsoever and with little preparation. The politicians we elect are a reflection of who we are.
Journalism and Media
Many media outlets and journalists have fallen short. Many have turned news into a spectacle.
Rethinking the Economy
What kind of economy are we working with where, if we're out of work for a month, we struggle to eat? We need to create sustainable economies for the future.
+ Values – Selfishness
Times of crisis show us the most compassionate side of people.
But also the side
The most unsupportive people have large doses
of selfishness.
Rethinking Technology
We have Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain… but they've done little or nothing to predict or contain the pandemic. Yes to technology, but for people.
Rethinking Education
We need to re-evaluate our educational priorities. It's a powerful tool for building society that we're not taking full advantage of.
– Bureaucracy + Efficiency
We need to rethink the excessive legislation and bureaucracy that individuals and businesses have to endure. It needs to be made much easier and more efficient.
Personal Social Responsibility
If we demand Social Responsibility from companies and Public Administrations, we must practice Personal Responsibility.
This crisis must be an opportunity
We must learn from the crisis to improve society, the economy, education, etc. Let's not repeat the same mistakes as in the 2008 crisis.
