France's Muslim communities, in the banlieues and other urban areas following the Charlie Hebdo attack in 2015
01/10/2015
The integration of six million Muslims, including youth with few opportunities, remains a major challenge in France. A similiar challenge exists in the UK, Germany, Holland and Scandinavian countries. It was emerging as an issue long before the Charlie Hebdo attacks. Immigration was an issue in the 2014 elections in Sweden, and is emerging as an issue in the elections in other European countries, increasing the popularity of right wing parties.

New York Times 01/20/2015
A spotlight on France's (and Belgium's) prisons and the banlieus as a place where radical ideas are formed unhindered following the Jan. 2015 Hebdo terrorist attacks in France
01/28/2015
France feels the need to tackle the silent development of extreme radical ideas within the banlieus or suburbs with immigrant population outside Paris, and the prisons where similiar activity takes place unhindered. Prime minister Valls, himself an immigrant from Spain, generated a debate in France by describing the situation in the banlieus as reminiscent of the separation of Apartheid with few job opportunities for young people and presence of fringe ideology.

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.
