The Hizmet movement is a civil society movement committed to the ideals of living together in peace and serving humanity, and it works within the framework of social responsibility and philanthropy. The movement is centered on the concept of altruistic volunteerism and prioritizes education, dialogue, and humanitarian aid in its activities. It is a peaceful movement that embraces religious, social, and cultural diversity and is inspired by Islamic and universal humanitarian values.

Social justice and equal opportunity are requirements for equality among people. 2. RESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW: Hizmet participants respect the rule of law.
