RAAS wish to turn out one new method after another, always combining two goals: sustainable livelihoods for the poor and regenerating the environment. RAAS is committed with the concept of sustainable development - living within the limits of the natural environment and livelihoods without compromising the needs of future generations. Conventional development practices only increase the gap between the haves and the have-nots. RAAS aimed to develop such mechanisms and institutional systems, which are needed to achieve equitable and environmentally sound development. RAAS will continue to lobby governments and policy-makers, conduct research, influence policy makers, and work with business and industry to address global threats to the planet by seeking long-term solutions.
