We will have to look at other countries to replace the way we see ours, opening our imaginations to new ideas, answers and futures.

As a component of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Global Learning Team, it’s exciting to see others watching what the world can teach us, whether it’s how China handles COVID-19, South Korean driving exams, or New Zealand elimination.However, in a survey conducted through Candid in early 2020 with foundations located in the United States, 73% of respondents said their national grants were rarely or nothing informed or encouraged through concepts and responses from around the world.beyond U.S. borders.
These practices would possibly replace. Those of us who paint in philanthropy, government and social replacement, seek to be informed as much as we can about COVID-19, and that naturally includes hunting abroad.But what will we really see when we do? TooArray, our vision is obscured by prejudice, and as we review to distinguish news from noise, intelligent intentions are not enough.We want to ask ourselves critical questions and exercise to succeed over our prejudices.
Here are 4 tactics to see the global in a new way as we seek to get out of the darkness of the pandemic:
COVID-19 has no borders and the same goes for smart concepts.But we are also limited through what has been called the “country of origin effect”, a mental effect in which other people perceive the quality and relevance of an object or concept through the In short, we have a tendency to look for concepts from countries that are similar to us demographically, culturally, economically or politically; in the United States, this would possibly mean that we are overestimating Europe’s learning and underestimating learning in low- and middle-income countries.
However, countries like Nigeria have much to teach us about contract research and mitigation thanks to their delight in eliminating the Ebola epidemic, just as Ghana’s state-of-the-art tax and control policies (including a three-month tax exemption for fitness workers) balance fitness and economic protection.For example, after the example of the need to be the mother of the invention, African nations are leading the way in innovation: making cheap checks for less than a dollar, using zip line drones to send checks to verification sites, and taking advantage of their cashless payments.Virtual payment infrastructure to facilitate social distance. Aboriginal cultural practices are another source of ignored inspiration, where concepts and practices aimed at collective well-being can be instructive for us in addressing COVID’s inequity problems.
Another technique for global learning begins by detecting our own lack of understanding so that we can see through the eyes of others.And when we explore, in the user or virtually, it’s smart to invite others to come, because they’ll see things differently.opt and opt for the learning that will give your network the most advantages.This learning path can begin by asking others what your desires or questions are, inviting them to participate in phone conversations with others in other countries, and reflecting on every level of your learning journey, from the questions you ask to the connections you make.
For example, just as the leaders of Pittsburgh and Glasgow trained with each other about post-industrial recovery, with ours, we are already making plans to examine the holidays in Bhutan, before COVID-19, to see what American leaders they can be.technically de.su to well-being. We hope, whatever form you take, that this holiday will show how your culture of happiness and network thinking has contributed to the positive effects on the pandemic, as personal hoteliers have presented loose housing while farmers and agricultural cooperatives have provided loose food.We are very happy to see what the leaders of the American networks will be trained by experiencing what Bhutan is doing.
Seeing others can also start closer to home: when Massachusetts executives struggled to manage touch search, they connected with Boston-based Partners in Health, who can capitalize on their 30 years of delight in fighting other pandemics around the world.Together, to do with others means avoiding authoritarian top-down approaches.In Taiwan, for example, digital minister Audrey Tang attributes her national good fortune by avoiding the spread of COVID to her preference to accept it as true with others, based on the “collective intelligence of a dynamic society.”One tactic was to combat “rumors with humor,” inspire citizens to ridicule conspiracy theories and make science spread faster than fiction.
While we still want to be as informed as possible about how the virus spreads and how to prevent it, the disparities between other countries’ successes and mistakes are much deeper than epidemiological, medical or technological facts.viruses in society, we want to better perceive the wider diversity of underlying situations that can exacerbate pain and contribute to healing.
For example, the pandemic highlights how the situation in which we live, in which we are informed and the paintings has an effect on our physical condition.Countries like Germany and England are directly attacking these connections by creating a certain source of income, while countries like Afghanistan are giving but we also link how other leadership styles contribute to the results: from Finland to Taiwan, it turns out that women leaders have shown humility in seeking to be informed of more varied groups, they were more reluctant to threaten decisions affecting fitness.and more attentive to the way they communicated with their constituents.
One underlying condition that the pandemic has exacerbated is domestic violence.When other people take refuge in the place, people living in abusive homes tend to be abused more, not being able to find outdoor assistance, or even make a phone call.Some European countries are meeting this need, adding Italy, which has adapted an application originally designed to combat harassment, to address this developing need: YouPol allows others to touch the police without making a phone call.they were already in misery because of the lack of access to fundamental resources, they used their history of self-sufficiency and resilience to shape “crisis cabinets” to access and pool vital resources and a percentage of the training needed to fight and address spread.contribution to its disproportionate effect. These locally organized ensembles have not only helped shape the broader national policy for this crisis, but also potentially for the future.
Sometimes the real adventure is to look for new landscapes and see the global with new eyes.On my Robert Wood Johnson Foundation team, we call this “blue marble thought,” encouraged through how the first view of earth’s now worldly symbol from space, “blue marble,” has profoundly replaced the way we think about the planet.
So how can we see with new eyes today?
In March, Portugal adopted a decision to grant all refugees and migrants transitional resident status, in order to allow them access to the same social and social status as Portuguese citizens.are now identified with equivalent rights of access to smart care and fitness.
All over the world there are things that “are going to look different” from what they were before the pandemic, from what is perceived as a fundamental employee in our appointments with our planet. In Milan, for example, the coronavirus lockdown encouraged leaders to view transportation and the true purpose of their streets differently. In the process, they addressed the issues of pollutants and mobility, a transformation they hope will have a lasting effect on quality of life. Or take Liberia, where officials looked at the unemployed and saw an opportunity, to retrain them as network fitness employees, releasing two birds with one key (a technique also known as ‘multiple resolution’) Array Y in Hungary, Two teams were disproportionately affected by Social Isolation are the elderly and the young, however, instead of seeing two populations in difficult situations, non-profit organizations have designed a program to help each other. Array The program, titled “How are you today?” connects other young people who in the past had volunteered at music festivals to communicate 4-5 hours a week with other seniors, providing much-needed connections during those difficult times.
In a provocative new report, Geoff Mulgan suggests that, because we jointly suffer from a lack of public and social imagination, we will have to resort to countries that “have created cultures that for long periods have allowed them to believe and pioneer new tactics of “Taking the Example of New Zealand, Refers to Their Prestige” the first country to obtain universal suffrage (including women) in the 1890s , the first state of fashionable well-being in the 1930s and now things like today’s first wellness budgets.”
In our global learning team, we ask each task how our paintings adjust the way we think and what we do in the United States.In other words, we look to other countries in the hope that this will replace our beliefs., opening our imagination to new ideas, answers and futures.This is only imaginable if we can triumph over our prejudices that obstruct our ability to see answers around us.
COVID-19 will be studied for generations to come, but what the world learns will depend on what we have noticed today.Have we been looking for answers around the world?Have we identified the underlying situations that exacerbate or help us succeed over inequalities?Was our eye strong enough to see how we can create the kind of society that allows everyone to live a healthier, happier life?
