Sustainable Development
Sustainable development is an essential element of stability, as well as being pivotal to achieving human and social advancement. It is a continuous process, taking various forms in order to improve and advance prosperity, stability and development in line with the needs of society as well as its economic, social and intellectual potentials.
Peace and Justice
Peace is at the forefront of the human values that all people seek to secure. Peace, by simple definition, means the absence of conflict, violence and war. It is a state of tranquility. The term ‘peace’ is used as an antidote to war and acts of violence between individuals, classes of society or between competing states.
