Find the route
to your inspiring
union-wide
Personal EU era
On the map below, you can follow the development of interactivity, Union self-esteem, group challenges, digital skills, and their combined effect.
The map also shows the place of an essential automatic TeamFinder and other needed team tools.
With the three corresponding roadmaps peeking behind, we see here the PPPP development process (Politic-Public-Private-Person) leading EU cooperation to a new level. It requires the individual structuring and coordination of each P map. The interaction between levels in the new era could be represented by a function "elevator". This is a human-like challenge also for the EU's AI assistance, to ensure more functional cross-sectoral understanding in style, perspective, logic, and terminology.
Let's understand each other and 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 a serious vulnerability for the Union, and the risk that power will fall into the hands of those who restrict our rights.
However, we aim to make exemplary progress in open intercultural cooperation and shared success 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, strengthening the EU's self-esteem, inspiring people daily to be EU-wide, and activating us to connect with like-minded people in other EU countries. It is also a bright and easily implementable idea with the willpower.
Needed:
1. The Union's homepage is a pleasant central place for all EU citizens.
2. TeamFinder brings together Union-wide citizen groups 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.
Creative, like-minded, union-wide teams are also a valuable resource for new user-centric innovations. This is why the concept should be part of the EU's public-private partnership policy in the coming years. PPPP (Politic-Public-Private-Person) cooperation enables every EU citizen to enjoy EU citizenship and to personally participate in steering the Union towards a better tomorrow.
This needs to be universal:
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 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, economic, and social information from each EU country and place the results as visual/audio crystallizations for comparison on the map.
By comparing, we understand each other much more easily.
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 in a common European opinion bank for later research and daily use.
What could the Voter do for you?
Let your team vote anytime any subject and show the result as visual and numerical graphs.
Allow with your permission, saving the results into a union-wide opinion bank.
Projecter
Because the team members have much in common, they are on a growing scale specialists in those common things.
It's easy to imagine them as a commercial organization with its products and services.
Succeeding in businesses would be much easier with the 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 an organisational suggestion to the team.
Projects are not just chats about hobbies and regular online meetings. These teams are unique opportunities to 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 for 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 Commission's 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 the president's floors.
Academy
All Personal EU team knowledge should, from the beginning, be collected in 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 approximately. 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 the 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.
