Cocoyoc Declaration 1974
Yasmin Kassam
History of Environmental
Sustainability
"Our first concern is to redefine the
whole purpose of development. This
should not be to develop things but to
develop man. Human beings have
basic needs: food, shelter, clothing,
health, and education. Any process of
growth that does not lead their
fulfilment or, even worse, disrupts
them is a travesty of the idea of
development”
“It has proved impossible to meet the 'inner
limit' of satisfying fundamental human
needs. On the contrary, more people are
hungry, sick, shelterless and illiterate today
than when the United Nations was first set
up.”
"The problem today is not primarily one
of absolute physical shortage but of
economic and social maldistribution and
misuse; mankind's predicament is rooted
primarily in economic and social
structures and behaviours within and
between countries."
