Integrity:
The quality of being
honest and having strong moral principles. All staff are encouraged to be
morally upright building honesty and trust in all their engagements.
Transparency:
The availability of accurate information about issues and commitments and the performance of actors. Our partners, our community, and our staff should expect
accurate information as this builds trust and a sound basis for decision-making.
Accountability: Is holding institutions, staff, and actors accountable for commitments and performance. All community engagements between staff, duty bearers and the community should be guided by holding people to account for actions and resources availed to them.
Respect for human rights: Upholding the bill of rights as enshrined in Kenya law that promotes the enjoyment of human rights (legal capacity - everyone has the inherent right and obligations to make their decisions). We respect the rights of communities, women, youth, and special groups.
Beneficiary Focus: Being mindful of the rightsholder's decision-making power by way of involvement and participation. We promote co-creation with communities based on the idea that ‘’communities are not empty glasses’’.
Equity: we recognize that we do not all start from the same place and must acknowledge and make adjustments to imbalances. Hence women, youth, and special groups begin at a disadvantage as compared to others, we encourage positive discrimination to walk with everyone in development.
