Along the years, two key questions constantly emerged in our projects, referring to human cognition rather than to technology and found to be central to the success of future project:

b) What is unique in human perception/ conception cognitive mechanism, different from other living organisms on Earth?

*The need to redefine Wisdom.
*The need for a dialogic communication
*The need for a new lifelong educational concept.
* The need to better the role of storytelling.
