“Enlightening” our Youth — through the right Education
With the still ongoing pandemic and evolving crisis, this is a crucial time for young people.
Even before the pandemic, the future didn’t look very bright for them. Youth unemployment was rising everywhere, in certain countries reaching 30–40% regardless of qualifications.
And our societies were going nowhere. I mean the values, goals, purposes the previous generations left for today’s youth - if any such things were left for them - can’t be called Human. Just look at the “most important topics” that go viral in the mass media!
The only truly serious, life-changing issue our youth could raise, discuss is the climate change issue, which is either ignored or is totally distorted by those who could make changes.
Thus while the pandemic and the unfolding socio-economic crisis will undoubtedly cause even more hardship, destruction, unemployment, it also provides the chance for a new start.
Those who are leading our societies right now, the values, goals, ideologies, structures that were artificially kept alive until now will totally collapse, disappear.
Thus it is extremely important what new values, goals, directions the youth is choosing for rebuilding Human society.
For that reason they will need the proper, “Global, Integral” education, so they could understand, moreover feel that in order to be successful in this rebuilding we will need to use Nature’s perfect template - based on mutually responsible, mutually complementing integration, loving by natural necessities and available resources - instead of our own inherently selfish, egotistic, explosive ideas.
Then with the help of our “enlightened” youth, we can finally start a conscious, positive development after the millennia-long chain of recurring, vicious, historic cycles.
