Paradoxically, many people feel lonely in our hyper-connected society. They suffer from a lack of depth in their relationships. Communication is ubiquitous, but genuine encounters are much less common. This loneliness can lead to a loss of reference points, to existential suffering that sometimes finds few places to be heard, encountered, and, if possible, overcome.
In such a situation, young people are susceptible to black-and-white thinking and polarization, which can lead to radicalization. Seeing the other's difference, based on one's own weakness, as a potential danger to be combated or avoided: this is the seed of a divided society.
But is this what young people desire? Young people need affirmation. Deep within them lives the desire to act for the good, to make a positive difference.
Dialogue is essential if we want to shape an inclusive and dynamic society. In dialogue, everyone finds their place and can actively use their talents to build a united society. Differences then become a source of reflection and enrichment. Dialogue is a first step in a commitment to a peaceful and just society.
