With ‘the lottery of life’ as our starting point, we work – without any compromise – from the following basic principles:
Every child’s safety, dignity, and wellbeing come first. Children have the right to grow up in a safe, loving, and stimulating family environment.
We treat every child, family member, staff member, and partner with dignity, empathy, and respect—regardless of background or circumstance.
We ensure equal opportunities for all children and families, free from discrimination based on gender, disability, religion, ethnicity, or social status.
We work with communities, caregivers, local leaders, and stakeholders to improve children’s lives. Our first choice is always to partner with (local) government, strengthening existing systems for lasting impact.
We behave in an honest, ethical and trustworthy manner.
We display a personal, caring, professional and efficient way to respond to pronounced and unpronounced children’s needs. The children’s best interest is always our guiding principle.
We set ambitious goals and strive towards creating the highest possible impact for all beneficiaries with continuous improvement.
We show respect for the views and contributions of other team members. We listen, support and care for others. And actively build on our team spirit by reconciling conflict and adapting to the team. See it, say it, fix it.
We value the expertise and skills of workmanship, take the corresponding responsibility and invest in our professional development.
