A simple and far reaching framework is needed to indicate the interdisciplinary connections between issues of population, environment, society, and development. Policy makers must understand the holistic nature of these issues when they formulate programs and official proclamations. High population quality and sustainable development are the goals they are trying to achieve and only by drawing from various disciplines is this goal going to be achieved. State guidelines are the context in which issues from these different areas are discussed. Quality of life and sustainable development is a national objective and is a reflection of lifestyles and values of the people. The government knows that it must work in conjunction with its people in order to complete policy goals.
