Coexistence is an a priori condition common to all living beings and indispensable for their existence. The existence of others thus takes priority over one’s own existence, but the condition of existence of the environment and people is just as important, since it has a considerable influence on our own condition. The “ECOEXIST” movement, starting from this reflection, proposes the introduction of the values of tolerance and cooperation (both environmental and social) into the educational system, so as to mitigate the selfishness for which man is predisposed, which is the cause of animosity, intolerance and clashes between individuals and exploitation of the goods offered by nature. The proposal here is to structure an educational system that has the role of raising the awareness of the new generations in parallel to environmental and social issues through an awareness of the value of the concepts of tolerance and cooperation, making them become, more or less consciously, a priori approaches in their ideas and actions.
It would thus be possible, through new minds, to find new solutions to environmental problems and, through collective action, to implement and disseminate them.
It would thus be possible, through a new society, with a new approach, to mitigate and perhaps make disappear the intolerances between individuals and the futile battles that are fought against the rights of a few, who will instead win the same battles because they will no longer have rivals. One will be able to be immersed in biodiversity while maintaining one’s safety and the comforts that the urban environment offers.
One will be able to cooperate in building a rich and diverse world of healthy environments and personalities, improving and perfecting the condition of coexistence.
