We also have a simplified version of our 10 Key Values (adopted from the Alaskan Greens) that are being prepared for our new 2011 membership brochure:
Ecological Wisdom
Operate human societies in harmony with nature.
Nonviolence
Use nonviolent methods to oppose practices and policies with which we disagree, and in the process reduce polarization and selfishness that is often the source of violence.
Community-Based Economics
Develop self-sufficiency and sustainable small-scale economies that help communities.
Respect for Diversity
Honor cultural, ethnic, racial, sexual, religious, and spiritual diversity with dignity for all beings.
Future Focus
Encourage people and institutions to think in terms of how their decisions impact on future generations.
Social Justice
Encourage people to promote health, equality, respect, dignity, conflict resolution, and justice for all.
Grassroots Democracy
Develop systems that allow and encourage us to control the decisions that affect our lives, and have elected representatives who are accountable.
Decentralization
Restore power and responsibility to individuals, communities, and regions.
Feminist Values
Ensure equality for women and replace dominance and control with more cooperative ways of interacting.
Personal and Global Responsibility
Take good care of our earth by our everyday actions, and be of genuine assistance to people in other parts of the world.
