NEW ROUTES TO A BETTER WORLD - HEALTH FOR ALL

To ensure a better way of life for mankind in the future, the world needs to pool its resources together to develop new innovations through global understand ing and then promote and maintain these innovations to further share ideas with all nations of the world. As our world becomes "smaller" and more international new knowledge based ideas will benefit everyone.

Education is truly the most important foundation needed to change the current mindset which in turn will open the door to innovation, progress and change. EXPO being the world's most comprehensive and truly global event by collecting global data has already committed significant research on the subjects chosen as its themes.

Focusing on education and human capital development is the only way to alter the current critical situation of our world. This will eventually enable us to achieve the goal of innovative development.

Also directly related to these goals, 'health' in the general sense, is the most inclusive, but least globally shared idea. Certain ideas on healthcare and diseases exist in specific cultural contexts and reflect the values, beliefs and practice of the context in question. Hence there are numerous meanings attached to the term "health" - occasionally conflicting or partial. Of course, these reflect particular perspectives or viewpoints that cannot always be transferred from one culture to another.

So, in essence, everyone in our world needs the knowledge and experience of each other. Scientifically, or traditionally, EXPO 2015, will be the right time for the Earth, to share every solution possible.
