Building Capabilities mission is to promote people’s capabilities as areas of freedom, which expand their opportunities to select who to be and what to do in their societies; where one can envision oneself in the world as one desires, and have the means to embark on a journey to realize that vision.
“If it is in our power to prevent something bad from happening, without thereby sacrificing anything of comparable moral importance, we ought, morally, to do it.”
From Peter Singer’s Famine, Affluence and Morality
