• that actively condemns the authentication of future unjust policies and sees to a conviction of responsible policy-makers;
• that is actively approached by international, national, and sub-national policy makers for guidance in drafting future just policies;
• that is actively approached by international, national, and sub-national policy makers for guidance to judge the justness of existing policies.
