Equity and justice – requiring us to work to ensure equal opportunity for everyone, irrespective of race, age, gender, health status, colour, class, ethnicity, disability, location or religion.
Honesty and transparency – being accountable at all levels for the effectiveness of their actions and open in our judgments and communications with others.
Solidarity with people affected by calamity and the powerless and excluded people shall be the only bias in their commitment to the fight against human suffering.
