Framework for Action Selected Messages from the Universal House of Justice 2006-2016

by Universal House of Justice (Editor)

Since 1996, the Bahá’í world has pursued a series of Plans that would take it the end of the first century of the Formative Age, and each of these Plans contributed in its own unique way to the pursuit of a single, overarching aim: advancing the process of entry by troops. Much of the guidance provided by the Universal House of Justice to the Bahá’í world in the first decade after 1996 was captured in the book Turning Point . This volume, Framework for Action, organized in much the same way, covers the past decade from 2006-2016. Its three parts include Messages from the Universal House of Justice, letters written on its behalf, and supplementary materials. These messages shed light on how, in the past ten years, the systematic efforts of the Bahá’í community—reinforced by a learning process involving study, consultation, action, and reflection—have grown stronger, deeper, and more complex.

About the author

The Universal House of Justice is the supreme governing institution of the Bahá'í Faith. It is a legislative institution with the authority to supplement and apply the laws of Bahá'u'lláh, the founder of the Bahá'í Faith, and exercises a judicial function as the highest appellate institution in the Bahá'í administration. The institution was defined in the writings of Bahá'u'lláh and `Abdu'l-Bahá, Bahá'u'lláh's successor, and was officially established in 1963.
