The world seems to be in a state of Re-Evolution, as the pandemic has accelerated change due to digital transformation with appeals for immediate action due to climate change, and global social and economic inequality across society.

Re.Humanization translates into the Slow movement, which is becoming the way forward in seeking spiritual and physical wellbeing, backing local communities, limiting pollution and waste, and supporting the weakest.
The pandemic has made clear how everything is Interconnected, from geo-political issues, the economy, civil rights, health and medical issues.
