Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.
I believe that as much as we may be informed by different philosophies and international theories, but the ultimate goal is the same. Which is attaining peace and prosperity for the human race. The challenges we face are the same as well and through consensual corporation, which is a reality that can be constructed by global leaders who understand what the world at large needs.
What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?
I think the world is still unequal from a gender point of view. In a sense that there is still lack of representation for different gender mainstreams in the most influential positions in governments as well as international institutions. The appointment of Nkosazana-Dlamini Zuma as the AU chairperson was a prominent step forward. The issue Human Rights is still a very pressing problem in the world. People from third world countries are still finding it difficult to attain freedom. Due to the oppression they face. The gap between developed and underdeveloped countries is still expanding, making it difficult for the world to face challenges together effectively just like the Covid-19 pandemic.
How do you feel these problems could best be solved?
1. Education- If educational institutions can be improved in terms of the contents and structure of the curriculum, much can be achieved in dealing with cross-cutting issues. According to Mazizi Kunene\ Development is not development, unless it is development for the people. 2. Strengthening Corporation. If countries can understand that only through corporation that we can be able to deal with socio-economic issues that we face, we can have an improved world today. Improving bilateral and multilateral relations through a shared vision of a green economy.
