We believe in acting quickly and adapting to the changing contexts of the field. We recognize that, in order to have maximum impact, humanitarian action must be agile, reflective, and responsive.
We invite the people who are affected by decisions to participate in decision-making processes. We communicate consciously and transparently. We approach challenges with the intention to collaborate to build and not destroy.
We don’t give up. Whether providing quality education or responding to emergencies, we are determined to enable healing, encourage learning, and provide life-changing opportunities.
We think outside the box to drive innovation, avoid stagnation, and eliminate ineffective response mechanisms. We are inspired to pursue positive outcomes even in the most challenging circumstances. We have the courage to experiment, reflect, and embrace change.
We lead with the conviction that collective action makes us stronger and our impact greater.
We care about what happens and how it happens. We take responsibility for the effects of our actions rather than just our intentions. Our work is imbued with a sense of responsibility for our impact on the well-being of people and the future of our earth.
