Our Vision – Preparing to meet the challenges of the future
A sustainable society must use and protect the planet’s resources so that they remain a stable basis for all mankind and future generations. A fair society creates comprehensive security in a broad sense, and facilitates freely chosen individual developments as well as open access to education and information. A sustainable and fair society requires effective, innovative and well coordinated public policies and institutions.
We believe that global change, in spite of the risks, is a change to achieve global sustainable development by means of peaceful and democratic processes. This vision of a fair and sustainable society is the premise that permeates all our work.
