Guiding Principles

The 10 principles below reflect our beliefs about the role of its service to the Society and the impact that we want this association to have. The principles guide what we do, why we do it, and how we do it.

While many of them are fundamental to the way we operate, we will remain open to amending them as we grow and learn more about our activities.

#4. Use collective strength to address common problems of the members / society peacefully

#5. Advocate—vigorously but responsibly—in our areas of focus.

#7. Be humble and mindful in actions and words.

#8. Deliver results with the resources that have been given and seek and share information about those results.
