Here is your route
to an inspiring
intercultural
Personal EU
Below is your multi-layered roadmap to a "Personal EU" era. You will follow the development of interactivity, Union self-esteem, group challenges, and digital skills and their combined effect.
The map also includes key team tools, the most important of which is an automatic TeamFinder.
Together with the other three maps peeking from behind, this roadmap forms a PPPP development process (Politic-Public-Private-Person) leading to a new level of cooperation. It requires both the individual structuring of each P's map and willing joint coordination. In this map inter-levelity is represented by the Elevator. Updating everything current into a functional, collaborative, identity-secure era is a specific challenge for the Union's AI-assisted digital development. The implementation must offer even more targeted content with the logic and words of each level to optimally serve the common goal.
We are happily forced to understand our union
The European Union is a success story of human rights, languages, and peaceful coexistence of peoples. The achievement of freedoms and standards of living has also numbed us to indifference - to the point that around half of the EU's eligible voters do not even bother to vote in the EU parliamentary elections. This means serious vulnerability for the Union and the risk that power will fall into the hands of those who restrict our rights.
However, our goal is to make exemplary progress in open intercultural cooperation and shared success both nationally and internationally. This is also supported by the openness of our basic education and the permitted curiosity towards wider circles.
The Personal EU is a very EU-like idea in spirit, strengthening the EU's self-esteem and inspiring people to be EU-wide every day - to connect with like-minded people in every EU country. But it is also a very bright and easily implementable idea with the right willpower.
In short:
the Union's homepage as a central point
and the creation of your own EU-wide continuous team at the touch of a button.
The concept supports the development of citizen-centric community tools for daily private and professional interaction between individuals and groups.
Union teams of like-minded people are also a valuable resource for new user-centric innovations that are urgently needed for the development of services in the digital age. Therefore, the concept should be part of the EU's public-private partnership policy in the coming years. PPPP cooperation (Politic-Public-Private-Person) allows every EU citizen to personally enjoy understanding EU citizenship and guiding EU directives towards a richer life across the Union.
The Union is particularly valuable in terms of its scope: a personal team with
SOMEONE LIKE ME
FROM EVERY EU COUNTRY.
The EU administration should actively promote the widespread use of the Personal EU concept and be involved in organizing PPPP cooperation.
Personal EU has a life-enhancing message for every one of the Union's more than 400 million citizens:
EU is YOU!
The roadmap on this page maps the path from the perspective of the citizen (Person) to the desired state that will hopefully prevail in a few years from now.
Personal EU TeamFinder
The Union's homepage europa.eu should have a "Personal EU TeamFinder" button that accepts your EU ID, which would allow you to have your team in your screen: one person from each EU country, the person whose online history best complements you (life values, hobbies, development ideas, internationalization aspirations).
The group would be ready to use immediately and its window grid would be both a video meeting view and a writing view.
Everyone could write/speak in their own window and reply to each other's windows. Your meeting history would be saved in the team log, and you could return to it at any time in many ways: with a timeline, word search, translator...
Of course, you could make a real show out of your Personal EU, but your EU-wide team should work just fine on a laptop or even a mobile phone.
Personal EU teams need a good toolbox for meaningful interaction: to understand each other, to compare things, to launch joint projects, to vote on anything. And to interact with the work of other EU levels in a complementary way. To strengthen all this and the Personal EU era, an EU-wide Personal EU Academy would be a natural key player.
Understander
When you have your personal union on Your screen it's time to say something so that everyone can understand it: for example "Hello, who are you - how are you?"
Because there are tens of different languages in the union, 200 million people of almost 450 million do not have a common language.
Between languages, there already are good online translation and interpretation programs - but less between smaller languages which are the majority.
By investing enough the European Union could offer an online any language-to-any language system for anyone in the union.
The biggest reason to develop such a system, however, is to ensure the existence of our language richness - and the unique cultural resources behind languages.
Our present language situation means, that too little actual information will be translated into the smaller languages - which means exclusion and death of languages.
The opposite way is what we need: let's be proud of our language richness and let's use it as our strength in innovation through interactivity!
The Understander. What could it do for you:
Show/speak any language allowing challenging cooperation between individuals from different EU countries with unique cultural resources.
The online translation should be an essential part of our interactivity. Promising net translators already exist, but there is still a lot to fix (as this text written by Finn proves). Let's cooperate to understand things better!
Understander should also offer you a way to learn any European language in a new way: with your sentences! Translations into the languages you choose are visible and audible immediately.
Access to your Personal EU team should be available and customizable from the start on both mobile and desktop devices and digital tv. These 3 media will integrate seamlessly soon.
3viator should have versatile possibilities for message/text management, from free language selection to versatile content search.
What 3viator could do for you:
Allow versatile possibilities for language and content management.
Comparer
When you talk to an international audience about your familiar local topics, listeners will easily prefer to think about their local issues. Not because they don't care, but because they can't follow what you really mean.
The Personal EU system should include a component that extracts parallel facts from each country and displays them alongside the original. Let's call this tool a comparer. It makes the multicultural discussion more rewarding and interesting for all participants and helps the groups get good practical ideas.
What could the Comparer do for you:
Find comparing technical, economical and social information from each EU country and place the results as visu/audio chrystallizations for comparison on the map.
By comparing we understand each other much easier.
Voting is a good way to come to democratic solutions.
The Personal EU teams would benefit from an illustrated VOTER showing the plus and minus volumes of the team's opinions.
The results could (if the team allows) be saved into a common European opinion bank for later research and daily use.
What could the Voter do for you:
Let your team vote anytime anysubject and show the result as visual and numeral graphs.
Allow with your permission saving the results into an union-wide opinion bank.
Projecter
Because the team members have much in common, they are in a growing scale specialists in those common things.
It's easy to imagine them as a commercial organization with own products and services.
Succeeding in businesses would be much easier with help of system intelligence, a PROJECTER, recommending suitable response areas for each team member.
What could the Projecter do for you:
Collect personal characteristics of the team members into one chart and draw them as a organisation suggestion to the team.
Projects are not just chats about hobbies and regular online meetings. These teams are unique opportunities to really do something essential together - maybe a common small union-wide business.
Seller/Buyer
A continuous EU10, EU22 or EU27 team is a fantastic experience for anyone - even for union-level professionals.
Sooner or later the teams find the opportunities of the similarity.
They start to buy together.
They realize that they can do unique things together and sell them using their union-wide network.
To help those things succeed between a class-size team, they need a helping tool to share profits and costs and take care of common and personal debits and credits. The team needs a SELLER/BUYER.
What could the Seller/Buyer do for you:
Ensure safe and easy cost sharing in job finding, offering, bidding, buying, selling, and accounting inside and between Personal EU teams - and with their external public and private cooperators.
Elevator
Union-wide good ideas are not just for the Personal EU teams themselves.
Companies and EU organizations will be interested in getting such teams with such ideas.
The ELEVATOR is a tool that easily takes team initiatives and good ideas f.ex. to the commissions floor - or vice versa.
What could the Elevator do for you:
Direct asking and answering connection to/from the commission's, parliament's, member nations' and president's floors.
Academy
All Personal EU team knowledge should from the first beginning be collected to a global PERSONAL EU ACADEMY.
A good challenging virtual/physical academy and academy network to ensure the future of the union-wide Personal EU era.
There is still a lot of need for EU-level entrepreneurship education, as the EU of 450 million inhabitants now has approx. 25 million small and medium-sized companies of 1-250 employees and 1% larger than that.
What could the Personal EU Academy do for you:
University level development center for reaching EU's goal "World's most advanced innovation society".
Places to learn and graduate human-centric future-based life-long, union-wide and challenge-high Personal EU dreamteam organi(c)zation culture.
The task of the Academy would be to show the path from the birth of a successful Union-wide team to the implementation and development of successful hobby circles, joint purchases, tourism circles, startups, representative offices, manufacturing circles, and EU SMEs.
