that guide us to take into account the human element when one interacts with other human beings. They are the many positive dispositions that create bonds of humanity between people and thus have value for all of us as human beings. They are our strong positive feelings for the human essence of the other. It’s both what we expect others to do to us and what we aim to give to other human beings ("Do unto the other what you wish for yourself"). These human values have the effect of bonding, comforting, reassuring and procuring serenity.
Human values are the foundation for any viable life within society: they build space for a drive, a movement towards one another, which leads to peace.
Human values thus defined are universal: they are shared by all human beings, whatever their religion, their nationality, their culture, their personal history. By nature, they induce consideration for others.
