The Erich von Werner Society thinks that the planet and the people on it is approaching a new major period. These changes are because of or are accelerated by factors, which in combination and interaction with each other will trigger a new era: Dealing with technological progress (e.g. digitization, biotechnology, human optimization).

Some of the world’s most threatening problems :

Displacement: The number of individuals who were forced to flee their homes has skyrocketed drastically in recent years. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (iDMC) reported that 31.1 million individuals were displaced in 2016. Displacement could occur after natural disasters or throughout war. Unfortunately displaced individuals have increased to approximately 59.5 million due to continuing conflict in the Middle East. In Syria alone, there are about 11 million refugees, which include young children.

Besides malnutrition, there are many other issues affecting health on a global scale. In the past, the main topic of focus was communicable diseases like hepatitis, cholera, malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV. Increased access to clean water and improved education around proper sanitation has resulted in an overall decrease in the prevalence of transferable diseases worldwide. However, this does not mean that efforts to improve sanitation should be abated, only that what is currently being done to prevent disease is actually working.

Understand and change: It will never be possible to change the world alone. An idea can be so great, but it needs people who believe in it. People who implement them. People who fight for a better world. Join us. Contact us. Let us make the world better together. Read more at Alternative Hegemony

In German : Die Erich-von-Werner-Gesellschaft geht davon aus, dass sie denkt, dass der Planet und die Menschen darauf eine neue Epoche betreten. Diese Anderungen sind auf Faktoren zuruckzufuhren oder werden durch Faktoren beschleunigt, die in Kombination und Interaktion miteinander eine neue Ara auslosen: Veranderung der Umwelt (z. B. durch Klimawandel, Ausbeutung von Ressourcen, Umweltzerstorung) : Alternative Hegemonie.

Es wird niemals moglich sein, die Welt alleine zu verandern. Eine Idee kann noch so grossartig sein, aber sie braucht Menschen, die an sie glauben. Menschen, die sie umsetzen. Menschen, die fur eine bessere Welt kampfen. Arbeiten wir zusammen. Kontaktieren Sie uns. Lassen Sie uns die Welt gemeinsam besser machen.
