In this paper, it is argued how the present crises in the world are influenced by the breaking up of networks created by the communities worldwide. In addition to human-made networks, many networks in Nature also influence life in many aspects. In this context, the understandings of the behaviour of complex systems, especially in social spheres, can help us find better solutions in the future. The interdisciplinary studies uniting knowledge from science, humanities, and social sciences can proactively describe knowledge generation for understanding the complexity of processes in a coordinated and coherent way and applying it for problem-solving.
