Description

Integral Human Development (IHD) is a concept that emerged in the twentieth century, incorporates the cultural, economic, political, social, and spiritual perspectives. However, the spiritual domain is frequently forgotten due to its subjectiveness and difficulty in its operationality and usefulness to society. This research aims to emphasise the value of spirituality as a core component of the Integral Human Development concept and understanding.
