"pro" is the Latin word for "for or for the sake of". Usable in politics, economics, medical, catholic terms.
e.g. Pro Justitia = for justice (legal/politics)
Pro bono = for good will (free of charge) > any service
Pro rata = average (economics)
Pro Western world = take the side of the Western world
The opposit preposition for 'pro' is contra
hope this helps!
