The goals of world peace & sustainable development, in this more linked globe, revolve around the pursuit of inclusivity, unity, & human dignity. this study delves into the profound teachings of Buddhism and attempts to answer the urgent problems facing modern society by applying Buddhist ideas. A profound feeling of oneness and inclusion that surpasses social, cultural, & economic hurdles is fostered by the interdependence, nonviolence, and compassion emphasised in Buddhist philosophy. Humanity may lay the groundwork for future sustainability and peaceful cooperation by accepting and practicing these principles. Every person has inherent value, and the Buddhist perspective on human dignity promotes this value by calling for tolerance, compassion, and fair treatment.
