Families are the basic social group and the core of any given society. The
primary and most important purpose for the existence of families is the
creation and upbringing of productive offsprings. Hence, it could easily be
inferred that the foremost aim of a normal society is to ensure the
wellbeing and safe guarding of its young. This is the primary calling of all
societies and the foremost task of nations. Although this above illustration
is the universal truth that should prevail everywhere, Eritrean society's, a
society that has not been tainted with occurrences of greed and
individuality, and is very cultured and civilized maxes out. In our culture,
individuals exist not for themselves, but for their family and the
collective. Eritreans toil and work selflessly not for themselves, but for
bettering the future for the coming future generation. The generation of
liberation struggle, gave itself selflessly for the glorious common cause of
Eritrean Independence. Similarly, today's generation is working to couple
Eritrea political independence with economic emancipation. This generation
is laboring towards making Eritrea developed and self-sufficient.

The principal undertaking of the mission of laying foundational work of
social justice that will ensure the welfare and good fortune of the Eritrean
generations to come is an impartial part of the work that is being done at
this time. All the endeavors to expand health centers that will ensure the
safety of mothers and children to all corners of Eritrea, providing
vaccination to everyone and reducing child mortality rates that have been
registering commendable outcomes stem out from this objective. The
construction of kindergartens and schools in rural areas, extending help to
needy children, initiating means through which children can acquaint
themselves with education and open their minds to broader issues is all a
display far-reaching foresight that concerns itself with the wellbeing of
coming generations.

The role of the nation building process is not the facilitation of all the
material and spiritual needs of this generation only. Had it been this, lots
of easier choices and shortcuts could have been taken. However, its primary
and foremost mission is the creation of a developed and just nation in which
future generations could reside in peacefully. In order to achieve this
target, one must fully comprehend that resources of a nation belong to
everyone, including generations to come. Ensuring the wellbeing of the
coming generations, therefore, requires wise and careful utilization of
resources and the laying the foundations of social justice.

Nonetheless, the most significant asset of any nation is its human capacity.
Consequently, the task of developing our human capital through an investment
in their education and intellect should become one of the main tasks in the
nation building process. The undertaking and investment that is being made
by families, societies and the government in the task of ensuring the
wellbeing of the generations to come at this time is therefore, a source of
pride for future generations; for any generation is always immortalized
eternally through the work and foundation it leaves behind.
