3. If you could change one thing in the world, what would it be and why?
If I could change one thing in the world, it would be the way people treat each other. In parts of our world, human life is treated as after thoughts, by-products, as less than. We are desensitized to the suffering of others and grow cold to numbers - numbers of the sick, numbers of the dying, numbers of casualties in the continuing wars happening around the world. A wise man once said to “look for the helpers” in scary times. We look to the helpers now more than ever in this global pandemic. Those who have always been helpers, those who have been thrust into new and frightening roles as helpers, and those who watch and will grow to be helpers in the future, will be needed as our global connection continues to intertwine in complexity. May we treat human life as worthwhile and not as numbers. May we be the helpers in the dark times. May we be who we needed when we were growing up for someone else.
First of all, let me introduce myself: my name is Marta, I’m 23 years old and I’m very proud to represent my country: Spain. My mother tongue is Spanish, therefore I apologize if I make a mistake with English; I am still learning the language.
If I could change one thing in the world is that every child receives an education. As a teacher, I know the importance that everyone has access to a quality and free education.
We cannot tolerate that the educational system, due to lack of resources, allows only some to be successful and have access to all educational levels, while others fail and are excluded, or segregated in itineraries of lower level, intended for second-order social and labour routes. The only way to escape of the cycle of poverty is with education.
School failure ends up being a failure of the whole society, since education should be a priority. It is important that even if you are born in a lower social class, everyone has the same opportunities. Without having the same opportunities we will be losing a lot of human potential, who knows if there is no other "Albert Einstein" with no chance of standing out.
