Economic Inequality 28
There are wide varieties of economic inequality, most notably measured using the
distribution of income (the amount of money people are paid) and the distribution of
wealth (the amount of wealth people own). Besides economic inequality between
countries or states, there are important types of economic inequality between different
groups of people

Electoral Integrity 29
Change ManagementElectoral integrity refers to international standards and global
norms governing the appropriate conduct of elections. These standards have been
endorsed in a series of authoritative conventions, treaties, protocols, and guidelines by
agencies of the international community, notably by the decisions of the UN General
Assembly, by regional bodies such as the Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe (OSCE), the Organization of American States (OAS), and the African Union (AU),
and by member states in the United Nations

Ethnocracy 30
An ethnocracy is a type of political structure in which the state apparatus is controlled by
a dominant ethnic group (or groups) to further its interests, power and resources.
Ethnocratic regimes typically display a 'thin' democratic façade covering a more profound
ethnic structure, in which ethnicity (or race or religion) – and not citizenship – is the key
to securing power and resources.[citation needed] An ethnocratic society facilitates the
ethnicization of the state by the dominant group, through the expansion of control likely
accompanied by conflict with minorities or neighbouring states.

Evangelism 31
In Christianity, evangelism is the commitment to or act of publicly preaching (ministry)
the Gospel with the intention to share the message and teachings of Jesus Christ.
Christians who specialize in evangelism are often known as evangelists, whether they are
in their home communities or living as missionaries in the field, although some Christian
traditions refer to such people as missionaries in either case.
