Constitutional reform should include the installation of a modified semi-presidential system plus a committee-style legislature and selection of cabinet ministers from among committee chairs.

Human security is a fundamental human right, and human rights must take precedence over any regime or sovereign. Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and ensuring human security - including personal safety - is the most basic and urgent duty of all constitutional guarantors.

Venezuela's President Nicolás Maduro has pressed ahead with plans to create a citizens' assembly to draw up a new constitution.
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Venezuela needs constitutional reform to adopt a modified semi-presidential system with one presidential term of 5 years and no right to run again for 6 years - and no eligibility for close relatives. A law that is not backed by penalties is not a law, and a constitution which does not permit resistance is not a constitution. When the president violates the constitution, the people have the right to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The first step in resolving civil strife is constitutional reform. This means a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like France’s and a committee-style legislature similar to that of Switzerland. The prerequisite for permanent world peace is global democratization, and South Sudan’s government should begin drawing up a basic constitution with the above features in a paradigm shift toward democracy. It should adopt the values of One World under One Set of Laws and allow amendments in order to stay abreast of changing times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Information and data essential to the well-being of the people should be accessible to citizens through their smartphones, and civil servants who are ignorant of safety regulations shall be dismissed. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

The total population of the DRC is about 77 million, and more than 400,000 children are currently malnourished in the nation. The DRC’s government should be restructured and international law should be given priority over domestic law. Accepted humanitarian laws such as the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights should be adopted to guarantee the fundamental right of everyone to freedom from hunger and freedom from poverty, income and resource inequality.
