A Vision for Human Dignity  Healthy Human Development  Strong and Sustainable Economic Development  Promoting Good Governance  Strengthening Peace and Stability  Fostering a Powerful Sense of Common Identity, Consciousness, and Empathy as Members of the Ummah  Restoring the Image of the Muslim World Strategic Challenges Confronting the Muslim World and IDB

A Vision for Human Dignity  Rooted in the Shariah  Centred on comprehensive development of the human person  Balanced satisfaction of material and spiritual need  Balanced human development  Striving for knowledge and economic advancement  Emphasis on good governance  Development for all humanity, not just Muslims The Islamic Vision of Development IDB is to be driven by a vision of development inspired by Islam The Islamic vision of human development is not for the IDB alone to realise, but the IDB can play a critical role as an instrument of the OIC.

A Vision for Human Dignity VISION “By the year 1440 Hijrah IDB shall have become a world-class development bank, inspired by Islamic principles, that has helped significantly transform the landscape of comprehensive human development in the Muslim world and helped restore its dignity.” IDB as a “world class” organisation IDB as a bank based on “Islamic principles” IDB’s commitment to the “comprehensive development” of the people

A Vision for Human Dignity MISSION “The Mission of IDB is to promote comprehensive human development, with a focus on the priority areas of alleviating poverty, improving health, promoting education, improving governance and prospering the people.” Transformation of IDB mandate Widening of IDB development focus Profound implications: mindset, development strategies, expertise and skills capacity, organisational structure and resources

A Vision for Human Dignity  IDB Group shall be a Corporate Khalifah  IDB Group shall be proactive  IDB Group shall seek cooperation and support of governments concerned  IDB Group shall ascertain needs and aspirations of target communities  IDB Group shall consult closely with the stakeholders of proposed programs  IDB Group shall encourage local initiatives  IDB Group general approach shall be to communicate the ‘how to’ rather than ‘gift’ General Operating Principles

A Vision for Human Dignity Strategic Thrusts  Reform IDB  Alleviate Poverty  Promote Health  Universalize Education  Prosper the people  Empower the Sisters of Islam without breaching the tenets of Islam  Expand the Islamic Financial Industry  Facilitate Integration of IDB Member Country Economies Among Themselves and with the World  Improve the Image of the Muslim World

A Vision for Human Dignity Reform IDB – Strategic Thrust  The changes in the strategic environment impinging upon IDB  Changes to the IDB Vision and Mission that the Commission proposes multiply the demands on the Bank and make reform imperative.  Adjustments to the focus and priorities of the Bank, and the additional responsibilities the Bank is being asked to undertake also require changes to IDB organisation, and a very substantial enhancement of its capacity and resources.

A Vision for Human Dignity Alleviate Poverty – Strategic Thrust  Alleviating poverty must continue to be the most important comprehensive human development focus of the IDB Group, until poverty is no longer a prominent feature of the Muslim landscape.  Nothing detracts from wellbeing and dignity like poverty.  Along with poverty there is hunger, malnutrition, illiteracy, disease, crime and instability.  Poor people are not respected. They are looked down upon.  The Muslim world cannot regain its dignity and esteem if so many of its inhabitants are destitute.

A Vision for Human Dignity Promote Health – Strategic Thrust  This Key Strategic Thrust should address the most severe and debilitating threats to health in the Muslim world. These are:  Child mortality  Maternal health  Diseases including HIV/AIDS and malaria,  Environmental sustainability (access to safe drinking water and sanitation).

A Vision for Human Dignity Universalize Education – Strategic Thrust  IDB should set a target of universalizing both primary as well as secondary education by 1440 Hijrah.

A Vision for Human Dignity Prosper the People – Strategic Thrust  All countries, whether rich or poor, Muslim or non-Muslim, desire greater prosperity.  The role that IDB will be essentially in the form of providing policy recommendations and advice, consultancy services and as a knowledge bank.

A Vision for Human Dignity Empower the Sisters of Islam – Strategic Thrust  The Sisters of Islam are the greatest reservoir of untapped wealth and unfulfilled dignity that the Muslim world has.  In a few Muslim countries, women are more economically, socially and politically empowered than even in some Western nations.

A Vision for Human Dignity Expand the Islamic Financial Industry – Strategic Thrust  Islamic banking and finance is a signature product of IDB. They are virtually synonymous with each other.  IDB also needs to dramatically increase its financial resources and operations if it is to successfully implement the many added responsibilities that are being contemplated for it.  The expansion and improvement of the Islamic financial industry is, therefore, a matter of considerable urgency.

A Vision for Human Dignity Facilitate Integration of Member Country Economies – Strategic Thrust  Economic cooperation and integration in the face of globalization is absolutely essential for IDB Member Countries  It enables national economies to reduce economic barriers against each other, synergize on each other’s strengths and potentials for mutual benefit, and opens new doors for wealth creation.  It also protects the weaker economies against the predatory pressures of the strong.

A Vision for Human Dignity Improve the Image of the Muslim World – Strategic Thrust  Terrorism notwithstanding, the battle for the Muslim world’s image will be essentially won or lost on the battlefield of comprehensive development.  If the Muslim world, OIC and IDB are able to realize the Vision of IDB to a significant degree by 1440 Hijrah, the image of Muslims will improve dramatically
