Description: Thinking in Systems for Global Well-Being: A Thought on the COVID19 Pandemic by Theofilos Chaldezos A common enemy is not only at our door, but could infiltrate in through our loved ones.

Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today's world.
