The human values are beliefs that have a deep-rooted worth in usefulness or importance to the holder of these qualities. These values are necessity in today’s society and education system. These values provide a meaning to the life of a human being. Usually, people become lazy and dull after being successful in this materialistic world, but if they have values, they would always have a purpose and guide in their life. Values are needed to teach to the children from the early age at school. This will help them to lead a peaceful and harmonious life which is free from evils. Hence, the aim of this paper is to highlight the important of universal human value in our life and how the theories on values are given by different researchers.
