An easy-to-find global vision

“If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.”
​
- Albert Einstein
Einstein got an excellent reputation for being mostly right, so we do not see why we should disagree with him. However, before thinking about the problem and asking for the right questions, we need to agree on which ones we have. That's why we maintain this list, whose content come from a wide range of sources, including the UN, the WEF, NGOs, traditional media outlets and social media platforms. We hope that you find it useful, because we could not find it before.
