Bold & Empowering.png

We adopt a strength-based approach to all that we do.

We acknowledge power differentials and we negotiate these openly.

We speak truth to power.

We honour the internal and collective processes of recognising and nurturing our own power.

We are prepared to take risks where needed and we support each other in doing so.

Bold & Empowering

Please remember that these principles capture what we strive to achieve, but we are imperfect messy humans who struggle, get tired, do mistakes, and are often constricted by the parameters of the systems and structures we operate within.
