Traveling, seeing and living. These are the three steps that are traced when you discover yourself in the eyes of another. A journey is not only a holiday at the beach, it is also the exercise of looking another person in the eye. The profound difference between seeing and looking, between hearing and hearing is revealed to all of us who are part of this work.
The basic aim of a European project is to take the idea from the laboratory to the market, materialising ideas can sometimes sound complicated, so the first step is clear: visualising those dreams and have the will to pursue them.
We define project as the report detailing all the necessary means to carry out an idea. The European surname refers to the financing that falls on the idea. Europe allocates a large amount of funds to support ideas in relation to science, technology or social technology or social impulse, a branch in which our project is located. Knowledge is power and all those involved in the Commission are well aware of this.
But what is the value of this meeting between countries? The first thing is to be aware that human beings are as different as they are identical, even identical twins are no longer identical when the environment influences them.
Travelling reveals other landscapes, other environments, climates, languages and interests. Do climatic differences and spatial barriers make us different? Before the communication network was so exaggeratedly powerful, before we had transoceanic wiring, there were completely isolated societies that never knew each other and that have common denominators such as the veneration of a common denominators such as the veneration of a god or gave importance to gold.
Seeing that emotions also occur in the same way are, to a greater or lesser extent, in all our bodies. The chemical reactions that take place involving adrenaline, dopamine or serotonin are, to a greater or lesser extent, in the same way.
Living first-hand how a big power supports a small team with big ideas, to feel a breath of fresh air inside our bodies, within a chaotic system that usually presents itself as selfish. Few face-to-face encounters take place, we work for the same goal from miles away, people who take care and care about other people.
