Liebe ist, Hoffnung zu vermitteln 🌱

Bei der Suche nach Hoffnungsvollem stehen wir uns oft selbst im Weg. Unser Negativity Bias führt dazu, dass wir negativen Ereignissen mehr Aufmerksamkeit schenken und sie besser erinnern. So überschätzen wir Negatives und unterschätzen positive Entwicklungen.

An infographic illustrating indigenous and relational philosophies about sustainability and ways of being. The design features a tree-like structure with curved golden branches, each holding a colored circle representing different cultural concepts. At the base, an arrow transitions from "Relations of Domination" to "Relations of Care," showing transformation in values. Ten cultural concepts are displayed with unique icons and locations: Ubuntu (Sub-Saharan Africa) with a turquoise bird Mino-mnaamodzawin (Anishinaabek, USA) Satoyama and Satoumi (Japan) with cherry blossoms Saffu (Oromo, Ethiopia) with a leaf Kawsak Sacha (Kichwa, Ecuador) with a figure by water Nanao ñu'u (Mixtec, Mexico) Birgejupmi (Sápmi, Arctic) with a reindeer Suma Qamaña (Aymara, Bolivia) with a drum Sumak Kawsay (Kichwa, South America) Whakakapa (Aotearoa, New Zealand) with traditional symbols Below, a legend explains each concept's meaning, focusing on human-nature relationships, respect, and sustainable living practices. The overall theme emphasizes transformation from anthropocentric approaches to ecocentric and pluriversal formations based on reciprocity.

🌿 Indigenous wisdom offers many ways: 10 diverse philosophies from around the world demonstrate how human-nature relationships can shift from domination to care.

Überreiche begnügen sich nicht mit exzessiver Vermögensanhäufung, sondern wollen die Zukunft der Gesellschaft gestalten. Daher muss den Unsterblichkeitsprojekten der Überreichen ein besonderes Augenmerk geschenkt werden. Ein Beitrag von Martin Schürz.

Visual with the text: "1 in 3 women in the EU have experienced physical violence, sexual violence, or threats as adult".

This is unacceptable.

On the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and every day, the Parliament's message is the same: violence against women must be stopped ❌

Quote from David Korten, Member of The Club of Rome on the left in white and dark blue text against a bright blue background: “We are not dealing with a broken system in need of repair. We are dealing with a failed system in need of replacement.” Photo of him at a podium on the right.

📖 David Korten introduces an inventive economic model, "eco-nomics," essential for fostering a life-centric civilisation. It can replace the current model which only serves the already rich at the cost of the planet and other people.
