Rasmussen, a former prime minister of Denmark (1993-2001) describes the pain from the 2008 global financial crisis that is felt in developing and poor countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America. This essay was written by Rasmussen as president of the Party of European Socialists, at the time of the opening of the Global Progressive Forum in the European Parliament building by Bill Clinton. How quickly some of this is forgotten by 2009 when the global economy was recovering after large stimulus plans were implemented.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
