Introduction
At Safeguard Humanity Foundation, our mission is clear and unwavering and primarily based on the five fundamental principles or objective or pillars of our foundation: to protect,and to defend, to provide, and to preserve, to promote the life, and dignity, the integrity and total well-being of the human person of every tribe and tongue, people and nations. Guided by these five fundamental objectives, Safeguard Humanity Foundation strives to create a safer, a healthier, and a more equitable world for all.
Addressing the Trust Members in his inaugural speech on May 2016, Francesco said, “Beyond all dreams and frivolities, our mission, duty and responsibility are to protect and to defend, to preserve, to provide and to promote the Life, Dignity and Integrity of the human person of every tribe and tongue, people and nations as may be timely and urgently needed globally. This dynamic and visionary idea was conceptualized crystally in the singular term Safeguarding Humanity as a foundation. This is a call to the foundation members to shield and defend, to secure, to wall and to guard the human family using all available means and resources to achieve this global mission and objectives, and the nature of which is, an ongoing mission and one of our greatest obstacles shall be man himself.
Our fundamental principles
At the heart of our mission lies a deep and unwavering commitment to the well-being of humanity. Our work is guided by five foundational principles — To Protect, To Defend, To Provide, To Preserve, and To Promote. These are not just words; they are the essence of who we are, what we do, and why we exist. Each principle shapes our vision and fuels our action, driving us to create meaningful change in the lives of individuals and communities around the world.
1. We Protect
We believe that every human being deserves to live free from harm, fear, and oppression. Our first responsibility is to protect the most vulnerable — children, the elderly, the displaced, the abused and the marginalized. Through our outreach, advocacy, and intervention programs, we build safe spaces, respond to emergencies, and support those whose voices are often unheard. Protection is not a privilege; it is a right we fiercely uphold. SHUF believes that the Human life, dignity and integrity are at stake when human life is at service of other values or is brutally wasted in war, degraded in domestic, political, social, or religious conflict or violence. Seemingly the human life, dignity and integrity is worthless when sacrificed for any other pursuit or intent. Human dignity is at stake when it is ravaged by poverty, hunger, homelessness, and when human rights are trampled underfoot. SHUF protects the human life, dignity and integrity, and the key to human dignity is restoring the autonomy, economic, social, cultural rights and freedom of the people with reverence and deepest respect for all people.
in 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights enshrined human dignity in its preamble: ‘Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world. It says: ‘The dignity of the human person is not only a fundamental right in itself but constitutes the real basis of fundamental rights’.
2. We Defend
Justice and human dignity are at the core of our defense. We stand as advocates and allies, defending fundamental human rights against all forms of abuse, discrimination, and injustice. Whether it’s through legal aid, public awareness campaigns, or policy reform, we raise our voices for those silenced by systemic inequality. In every fight for fairness, we are present — bold, unwavering, and determined. Man is a vulnerable creature by his nature, a vulnerable social being at the mercy of natural disasters, pandemics and at the mercy of his fellow men-worse of them all.
Because man strives to survive and to dominate others through politics/business and family life/, to outshine others through religious faith, to minimize others, through social injustice, to subjugate others, through servitude, to impose on others, through oppression, abuses, human degradation/human trafficking, slavery, wars and maneuvering through misinformation, humiliations, propaganda and even unleashing venomous diseases on another to eliminate and to conquer, and man is also a victim of starvation, hunger, cheap labour, rape, domestic violence, deposes of his values and even his life, by robbery and thief, corruption in the highest places and the victim is the poor[26]. SHUF’S potent keys and weapon of defence are Prevention, Response, and Resilience, awareness, self-empowerment through education and community enlightenment enriched by defence and countermeasure strategies.
3. We Provide
Humanity is richly blessed, beautiful endowed with the wealth of natural and human resources, yet impoverished. The wealth of the world is in the hands of few people and nations. What if the world’s riches are evenly distributed or the rich generously care about the poor? Where there is need, we provide. There are schools and institutions of learning everywhere, but the world is dominated by illiterates and ignorant people. What if every government gives free education to a basic minimum of college and technical school? There are hundreds of trillions of security persons and experts all across the world, same as medical Doctors, missionaries and farmers, yet, the world is bewildered with insecurity, terrorism, robbery, diseases and infirmities, moral decadence and ethical abnormalities, food scarcity and famine.
Our principle of provision goes beyond charity — it is rooted in empathy and equity. From distributing food, water, and clothing to offering education, healthcare, and economic support, we strive to uplift lives and restore dignity. We are committed to meeting both immediate needs and long-term aspirations, ensuring that no one is left behind in their journey toward a better future. What if food chains and religion are not weaponized as means of domination and subjugation, slavery, war, violence and terrorism? The answer to all these, is that humanity will be safeguarded in progressive harmony and peace.
SHUF’S means of providing for humanity is ensuring with other local and global players that economic sustainability is activated, encouraged, monitored and ensured and that institutions of different specialties, inventions, productions positively adhere with all sincerity and lawfully to the humanity life, dignity and integrity in mind and prioritized in their scientific and technological quests, inventions and breakthroughs and not otherwise. To encourage and promulgate bills and laws that seek to guarantee the just distribution of the world wealth and resources as to end wars, poverty, hunger, eliminate diseases and man-made pandemics and epidemics.
4. We Preserve
We are stewards of both culture and environment. We recognize the importance of preserving our shared heritage, traditions, and ecosystems for future generations. Our initiatives focus on sustainability — nurturing the land, protecting biodiversity, and supporting communities in living in harmony with nature. In preserving the past and present, we safeguard the legacy of tomorrow. To Preserve Humanity. SHUF works to preserve humanity, to preserve and keep intact those adorable values that defines and sets us aside as humans and unique creatures alive with creative abilities, scientific millennium breakthroughs and dynamic in-genuities. Safeguard Humanity initiatives seek not only to protect and defend but to preserve human species, Eco-system, social order, human genetic life, food cycles, moral/ethical values and the dangerous negative creative energies of our time that seeks to affect and destroy man
Man is vulnerably gullible to the Trojan package of the 21st century, including the re-engineering of the human genetic embryo, agricultural products that constitutes health risks to human consumption, advancement in weapon of wars, and the weaponization of diseases and epidemics, the quest for economic domination and politicization of human social gender affiliation etc these and more is like a tide, eroding humanity down the drain of destruction in the nearest hundreds of years ahead if not stopped.
5. We promote
Our final but far-reaching principle is to promote the holistic well-being of humanity. This means fostering peace, education, mental and physical health, innovation, and resilience. We believe that true development happens when individuals are empowered to realize their full potential. Through mentorship, skill-building, dialogue, and collaboration, we champion growth that is inclusive, inspiring, and transformative. To promote the life, dignity and integrity of the human person. SHUF advances support, promotes and defends the human life, dignity and the integrity of all people, eager to raise the downtrodden to a dignified living, social advancement and elevation of all men and women created in the image and likeness of God, through advocacy for universal brotherhood of all nations where every man and woman is treated as truly man and truly belong to the human family, and as truly the image of God irrespective of our colour, language, descent or creed.
SHUF believes that the Human life, dignity and integrity are at stake when human life is at service of other values or is brutally wasted in war, degraded in domestic, political, social, or religious conflict or violence. Seemingly the human life, dignity and integrity is worthless when sacrificed for any other pursuit or intent. Human dignity is at stake when it is ravaged by poverty, hunger, homelessness, and when human rights are trampled underfoot. SHUF promotes human life, dignity and integrity, and the key to human dignity is restoring the autonomy, economic, social, cultural rights and freedom of the people with reverence and deepest respect for all people.
Together for Humanity
SHUF hopes to achieving our goals, tasks and objectives by fostering our core values in fidelity to its five Pillars through the creating awareness of the nobility and the sacredness of the life, dignity and the integrity of the human person which narrowly and widely touches every man and woman, young and old of every tribe, tongue people and nation. Understanding this fundamental purpose of our organization leads to the generous support of our mission and objectives by donating to the cause of our initiatives in various fields of endevour for a better world, while we bring the desire changes that affect the life of the many individuals and communities through practical eradication of the crippling socio-economic and political man-made blockades that not only seeks to destroy humanity but undermined every sustainable economic and developmental effort put in place for the common good and progress of mankind by institutions and world bodies.
The enormity of the human risk-challenges of our time has terribly subjugated humanity to untold hardships and sufferings, imposing on the Human Life, Dignity, and Integrity, a perilous existential threatening degradation, undoubtably beyond imagination. While these extraordinary dangerous human experiences are the concerns of both international and domestic governments and leaderships, they are the primary concerns and main focus of Safeguard Humanity Foundation, and have not only necessitate its inevitable establishment, but chiefly shaped the organization’s mission and vision, aim, purpose and objectives, principal goals, philosophical views and cultural values.
These five pillars are the foundation upon which our NGO stands — a blueprint for action and a beacon of hope. They reflect our deepest values and boldest dreams: a world where dignity prevails, justice reigns, and compassion guides every step forward.
Join us in building a brighter, kinder, and more equitable world — one principle, one life, and one act of love at a time.
