Economic Justice
The Unitarian Universalist Assoication's (UUA) 1964 Poverty General Resolution states that "poverty, in the midst of plenty, [is] intolerable to the religious conscience and incompatible with our principles of economic justice."Working for a just society is central to our faith—a faith based in the creation of justice and peace here on earth and among the members of our shared world community. The UUA seeks an economically just society and world in which government and private institutions promote the common economic good and are held accountable; all people have equal opportunity to care for themselves and their families; and individuals take responsibility for the effects of their actions on their own and others' lives.
