The future happiness of humankind depends on the universal understanding of human nature in terms of human needs for complete human development. What is needed to address millennium challenges and achieve sustainable development is an education for human dignity. An education in pursuit of the true knowledge of humanity. Our survival and continued evolution depend on the choice of philosophical paradigm which underlies the holistic education of human dignity that we offer to our children as the source of the creative nebulae in which the youths find refuge as they enter the world to renew mankind.

Peacekeeping and peace building undertaken by the UN and the Security Council historically has had mixed results. The deployment of UN peacekeeping troops has tended to be both tortuous and highly problematic because decisions to deploy peacekeeping forces cannot be made without the unanimity of the Security Council's five permanent members (the United States, Great Britain, France Russia and China). This has made rapid deployment of UN forces very often impossible. In addition, the UN peacekeeping missions in Africa did not last long as a result of the fiaskos in the 1990s.
