THE MAP

“Our world needs ideas and action,
this book has plenty to inspire us.”

Dr. Jane Goodall DBE Founder – the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace

Our new world – Die Neue Welt –  is a call to action tracing people and places that are already courageously creating a new world and finding many innovative answers. Whether it is Saba who gives voice to women asking questions they have not dared to ask before in her home country, Pakistan, or Peter who empowers youth across Africa through his tech social enterprise. While Scilla is nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize, creating dialogue between nuclear weapon policies. All businesses and narratives – large or small – tackle the big questions of our era: the climate emergency, future of work, social inequality and technology.

Sharing the actions of inspirational people from all walks of life; Florian showcases how everyone can concretely shape the new world around us and encourages us to get involved.
