Principles and values
These principles and values bring and hold us together as a movement. They are the basis of our cooperation, our behavior and they define who we are.
- We have a shared vision of change
Creating a world that is fit for future generations to live in.
More.. - We set our mission on achieving what is necessary
Mobilising enough of the population to achieve system change - such as "momentum-driven organising"
More.. - We need regenerative cultures
Creating cultures which are healthy, resilient and adaptable
More.. - We openly challenge ourselves and our toxic system
Leaving our comfort zones to take action for change
More.. - We value reflecting and learning
Following a cycle of action, reflection, learning, and planning for more action. Learning from other movements and contexts as well as our own experiences.
More.. - We welcome everyone - as they are
Working actively to create safer and more accessible spaces. We do not accept behaviour that exhibits racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, homophobia, ableism, class discrimination, ageism and all other forms of discrimination, including offensive language, in person or online.
More.. - We actively mitigate for power
Breaking down hierarchies of power and influence for more equitable participation.
More.. - We avoid blaming and shaming
We live in a toxic system but no one individual is to blame.
More.. - We are a non-violent network
Using non-violent strategy and tactics as the most effective way to bring about change.
More.. - We are based on autonomy and decentralisation
We collectively create the structures we need to challenge existing power. All those who follow these principles and values can take action in the name of Extinction Rebellion.
