My study of old #folklore gets more and more relevant to current-day affairs.
Example: All of these narratives about "Things That Cause #Autism " are basically recycled folk tales about #changelings .
Right now, we are at the: "The child is WRONG somehow - the mother must have been careless!" stage.
And it's only a very small step to: "My child is WRONG somehow! Thus, I must abuse it until I get my REAL child back - the one I always wanted!"
The context changes, but the underlying narratives stay the same.

- That the only ones defeated are those who stand idly by, resigned;
- That we can defeat the false prophets and oligarchs who exploit fear and monetize hate; and

This year, the world lost two exceptional public figures: former Uruguayan President Pepe Mujica and Pope Francis.
Both embodied the best humanist values like no other.
Their lives were intertwined with the eight decades of the UN's existence.
If they were still among us, they would use this platform to remember:
- That authoritarianism, environmental degradation and inequality are not relentless.

The world owes a lot to the regime created by the Climate Convention.
Climate change needs to be brought to the heart of the UN so that it gets the attention it deserves.
A Council linked to the General Assembly with the power and legitimacy to monitor commitments and provide coherence to climate action.
This is a fundamental step towards a broader reform of the Organization, which would also include an expanded Security Council in the two member categories.
