Taking stock of how things stand today, I look with enthusiasm at the union of those who fight to prevent us from living in chaos by 2030. It is true that we are making progress, but our pace is considered slow, and much of this stems from our willingness to pursue a better life in every sense, elevating the issue of Dignity to an unprecedented level. What is feared in 2030 is a crisis of confidence in the UN, which will inevitably spill over into the Financial Market, precisely because of the failure to meet the 17 Sustainable Goals. That is why we must do more. When I say “we,” I mean all of us, everywhere. The effects of disbelief in the UN will trigger member states to point fingers, demanding accountability, which will lead to disagreements and reinforce a scenario of War and Violence, more severe than what we have seen so far. Unilateral decisions are acknowledged, but multilateralism is being put to the test. Any totalitarian view regarding unilateralism is illogical; likewise,...

We are back to our regular publications. After a successful contest, it is time to highlight a few important points, listed below: The issue in the Middle East involving Iran, Israel, and the United States of America, in my view, is already over, since all parties — indeed, the whole world — are willing to engage in dialogue. These more mature military events tend to have a very short duration. If Iran stops attacking, then it deserves the support and protection of all those interested in preventing further escalation of military conflict. With Iran ceasing its attacks, it is entitled to neutrality and protection. This is equivalent to saying that it may retaliate if provoked, especially by Israel and the U.S. With points 3 and 4 satisfied, we have a ceasefire scenario, which should last about three months until tensions cool down. Both sides must stop feeding the media with hate speech. Such rhetoric always sensationalizes the tone of geopolitical discourse. This happens because ...

Guilty! We are all considered guilty of failing to safeguard the most precious asset we hold: life itself. The line that separates friction between madness and genius—that is, scientific proof—is a narrow one. And in Theater, there is more than just a script; there are interpreters, who are also consumers (and judges as well). We must become aware of certain logical relations, especially in hostile environments: we are Human Beings. Thus, in every way, we are Guilty, though spared from punishment. We are guilty of failing to act, of omitting ourselves before our duty; as we say here in Brazil, it is a “campaign for life,” and consequently, “everyone takes care of their own.” The issue goes further—it is not essential that institutions be destroyed. We cannot boast that this is a golden age, but it is also clear that the situation is not the worst. The worst events will unfold after 2030 (only four years away). It is imperative that the notion of a Dignified Life be reassessed by all ...
