“We can work together for a better world with men and women of goodwill,
those who radiate the intrinsic goodness of humankind.
To do so effectively, the world needs a global ethic with values
which give meaning to life experiences and, more than religious institutions
and dogmas, sustain the non-material dimension of humanity.
Mankind's universal values of love, compassion, solidarity,
caring and tolerance should form the basis for this global ethic which
should permeate culture, politics, trade, religion and philosophy.
It should also permeate the extended family of the United Nations.”
Wangari Maathai
