AMURT is working on the following principles— | |||
# Every human being has the right to meet his or her own fundamental needs such as nourishment, accommodation, medical care, clothing and education. The resources of the earth should be used in a just and appropriate way to meet those needs. | |||
# Every human being regardless of race, creed, gender, color or social status is a dignified member of the human family and should be treated with understanding and respect. | |||
# It is only by showing respect for women, and ensuring their integration and active participation in the development process, that a harmonious growth of the family, community and society as a whole can be achieved. | |||
