...is working to establish right human relations through the use of the power of goodwill

The most contagious human quality which can be organised and made effective is goodwill. It has been defined as “Love in Action”. People of goodwill are potentially the richest asset in any nation, and can have tremendous influence on public opinion when properly associated and focussed. To bring in the new day, we do not need a further appraisal of the world condition based on a particular ideology or point of view. Rather, we need a deeper sense of reality based on spiritual values, and a new perception of humanity as a unit of divine life within an ordered and purposive universe.

GOODWILL IS... the touchstone that will transform the world

PROGRESS IN THE LIFE OF HUMANITY

World Goodwill Commentary No.27, "Progress in the Life of Humanity", examines the idea of the evolutionary progress of civilisation, in both material and spiritual terms; and, perhaps crucially, the importance of coordinating both types of progress. It notes the opportunity for major progress which the current set of global crises offers, as well as the danger of failing to resolve them. The commentary argues that the sign of true progress is the emergence of new values and vision, and provides examples of positive change in our attitudes and actions in a number of fields: towards children; towards globalisation and new economic models; within the world's great faith traditions; in our relationship to Nature; and in how human unity is conceived."
