Children are at the heart of everything that we do. Keeping this in mind we advocate, promote and value child rights and create opportunities for meaningful child participation.
It is our sincere effort to create a world in which each and every child has the opportunity to fully develop all aspects of her/his personality and talent within a supporting family, community, and society.
Six value statements guide our work and our relationships:
1. We are ethical, honest, transparent, and place a high value on integrity.
2. We are accountable to all of our stakeholders in our communication, finances, performance measures and results and strive for effectiveness, sustainability and efficiency in everything we do. We adhere to recognized international standards.
3. We create the conditions in our work, in our activities and in our organization for personal empowerment, especially of children and the most marginalized.
4. We respect child rights and human rights and we believe in everyone’s innate and inalienable dignity as human beings regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, class, or disability.
5. We acknowledge that we cannot solve problems of poverty alone but can do so through team work and mutual partnerships.
6. We strive for continuous learning and improvement. We listen to new ideas and encourage entrepreneurial activities, innovation, creativity, and change.
