Recognizing that the economically expanded market worldwide has the engine of selfinterest, and that while it has strengthened economic and political freedom, it has in terms of the public service found a weakness of motivation manifested in acts of corruption or lack of interest in political participation, resulting in a crisis of survival of the species characterized by global problems that put all life at risk of life as we know it today. This includes such problems as climate change, development and trafficking of nuclear weapons, drug trafficking and inter-religious wars; Convinced that there is a community of increasingly interdependent global human life facing global problems where every decision has not only individual or national impact, but also reaches a global impact that may be negatively irreversible. Aware of the urgency of taking decisive action to transform structures and training systems in the development of the individual, and that it is necessary to promote and develop in every human being, especially public officials, in addition to the rational and physical informative training currently developed by the education system and the mass media, a universal spirituality; development must include a space of "introspection" or "recollection" through activities that have a long tradition which is conducive to addressing in an existential way the big questions of why and wherefore, the meaning of life and death and our historical legacy to future generations. We proclaim this Universal Declaration of Spirituality as a fundamental law and public policy, and we call upon the United Nations General Assembly and other global organizations to adopt it as a common purpose for all peoples and nations of the world, so that both individuals and institutions accountable for promoting through teaching, education and awareness, respect for these rights to the development of spirituality recognized in this Declaration; we must ensure, through prompt measures and progressive mechanisms both national and international, this recognition and universal application among all the peoples and states of the World.
