Global political instability and migration challenges rise

Global political landscapes are facing significant shifts characterized by widespread mobilization and the rise of far-right movements. In various regions, including Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia, citizens are increasingly challenging state structures in response to wealth concentration and the perceived failures of consumer society.

Economic factors, such as automation, robotics, and artificial intelligence, are contributing to job insecurity globally. This economic shift, combined with state austerity measures in countries where right-wing parties have gained power, has led to a deterioration of democratic quality and social peace.

In the Canary Islands, Spain, migration remains a critical issue as thousands of people arrive weekly via small boats, particularly near El Hierro. This influx is placing significant pressure on local resources and infrastructure. Additionally, international tensions persist due to ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.
