The world today is changing rapidly and facing many interrelated challenges. As Jung asserted decades ago, our time is characterized by a loss of connection to soul and nature. What answers and insights can Jungian psychology provide in a technocratic world threatened by multiple civilizational crises: conflicts and wars waging in more and more regions; an ‘eternal growth’ paradigm leading to ecological disruption that jeopardizes our basis of existence; digital media that impair us cognitively and psychologically with far-reaching consequences; social inequality and forced migration. Wisdom is increasingly outvalued by (artificial) intelligence, and truth is distorted and even abandoned in the interests of power.

The Mercurius Prize Committee is pleased to award the MERCURIUS PRIZE to Stephen Apkon for his two films, "Disturbing the Peace" and "There Is Another Way," and for his Human Rights organization, reconsider.org. The films are masterful works that profoundly capture the reality of tragic personal and cultural disunity, offering a vision for healing reflection and human rights.
