10. Communication and communicating together. We all communicate in different ways across the world. Words have different nuances in different cultures and language is used very differently to mean different things across age groups, classes, sectors of society and cultures. Misunderstandings are often forged through assumed meaning. Governments across the world are shrouded in secrecy, duplicity, lack of transparency, double speak and more. We need key influencers who stand up to be counted, are passionate about specific areas and see it as their meaning and purpose to communicate clearly and straightforwardly about the issue, so that small incremental steps can lead to meaningful change and development.

These challenges suggest that there is a great deal to do, within and across societies, to support all cultures and individuals with their unique and collective sense of MPIS.
