Our Approach
Our attitudes and behaviour help shape the world around us; we must try to be part of the change we seek by acting as we would have others act.

Head, Heart & Hand

We believe in the importance of the whole person:
Head: knowledge and critical thinking;
Heart: insight and compassion;
Hand: skills for effective action.

Personal, Local & Wider Society

We emphasise the importance of linking action at three different levels:
Personal: consciously developing head, heart and hand in all that we do;
Local: developing theory and practice by engaging with others in real issues rooted in the places we live and work;
Wider society: not only bringing global perspectives to our work but also influencing change in the wider society.

Action, Research & Education

We aim to contribute actively and effectively to a more sustainable and just world through integrating:
Action: which delivers practical results, including capacity building, consultancy and campaigning;
Research: to discover, develop, evaluate and communicate new understanding and approaches;
Education: to spread our influence by inspiring and supporting people through courses and training which meets the real needs of individuals and organisations.
