Our Tribe values

Transparency – honesty and open communication with our beneficiaries, supporters and at all times.

Rights-based – we call duty bearers to account to address the root and structural causes of poverty, inequality and injustice rather than just the symptoms.

Innovative – we recognise there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach. Innovation ensures we effectively engage with children.

Beneficiary Focused – The best interests of beneficiaries will always come first and their protection is paramount above other priorities.

Enabling – Our support must allow children to grow and reach their potential, nurturing their talents in an enabling environment.
