CORE VALUES
SEEING PEOPLE
AS PEOPLE
CULTURE OF
COLLABORATION
INSIDE-OUT
TRANSFORMATION
We don’t simply celebrate
similarities but also honour
differences. We also recognize
the way systems of oppression
objectify people, how we
are all impacted by cultural,
structural and direct violence.
When faced with a conflict
with another, we are
committed to finding solutions
that meet the needs of both
of us. We don’t avoid conflict
or give in. We don’t try to win
the conflict or compromise.
We engage the person with
respect for both that person’s
needs and our own.
We cannot help others work
towards a more peaceful
world until we have a greater
understanding of how equity
shapes our own lives and the
contexts in which we work.
