This publication, prepared by the Bahá’í International Development Organization at the Bahá’í World Centre, provides an illustration of how Bahá’í social and economic development is being carried out. An essential feature of this enterprise is an evolving framework for collective learning, rooted in spiritual principles from the Bahá’í teachings and the conviction that all human beings “have been created to carry forward an ever-advancing civilization.” The publication explores some key elements of this framework, providing examples of efforts from all parts of the world.
