Working Toward an Inclusive World

The world has never been homogenous. Over the ages, the plurality of man has been blamed as the root of various conflicts. But it must also be acknowledged that it is through such diversity that mankind managed to compete and progress, ultimately contributing to what it is today. The waning and waxing of human cooperation has characterized the history of mankind. Nonetheless, it is obvious that mankind risks its very survival if coordinated collaboration continues to remain so weak in the face of existential threats. We know that no man is an island. This is particularly true as the world is ravaged by the prevailing pandemic.
