A NetworkED ORGANISATION

WE SEEK TO

Contribute to the transformation of society, so that countries and communities can converge to similar levels of development within the limits of the earth’s resources, and with increasing equity for people today and for future generations.

Help people prepare for a future in which disruptive change will happen with increasing speed, and will demand a high degree of adaptability.

Build on the ideas expressed in the works of E. F. Schumacher, particularly working with nature, appropriate technology at the right scale, meaningful work, people-centred development, local actions, peace and non-violent approaches.
