The United Nations sets out a human rights framework for what constitutes a ‘just’ society. The key elements are social, economic and cultural rights. These include the right to: an adequate standard of living; education; work; equal pay for equal work; housing; health; freedom from torture; access to a fair legal system; and the right of minorities to enjoy their own culture, religion and language. The tropical world faces significant issues in relation to human development and quality of life. The wellbeing of individuals and communities is affected by social, ecological, economic, institutional and cultural domains and involves access to resources, information, relationships and power.
