The writings of Bahá'u'lláh articulate a hopeful, yet pragmatic view of the future. The Bahá'í vision of a united, peaceful world reflects an understanding that humanity is approaching its maturity and is able to create a global society founded on justice and expressing trust, collaboration, and compassion. Statements prepared by the Bahá'í International Community, such as "The Promise of World Peace", "Who Is Writing the Future?", "The Prosperity of Humankind", and "Turning Point for All Nations", offer perspectives on the pathway to a future of exceptional advancement for all humanity.
