# Our Principles and Values

##### Anyone who follows these core principles and values can take action in the name of Extinction Rebellion.
<br>

>**1. We have a shared vision of change:** creating a world that is fit for generations to come.
>


>**2. We set our mission on what is necessary:** mobilising 3.5% of the population to achieve system change – such as “momentum-driven organising” to achieve this.
.


>**3. We need a regenerative culture:** creating a culture which is healthy, resilient and adaptable.


>**4.  We openly challenge ourselves and this toxic system:** leaving our comfort zones to take action for change.


>**5. We value reflecting and learning:** following a cycle of action, reflection, learning, and planning for more action. Learning from other movements and contexts as well as our own experiences.


>**6. We welcome everyone and every part of everyone:** working actively to create safer and more accessible spaces.
 

>**7. We actively mitigate power:** breaking down hierarchies of power for more equitable participation.


>**8. We avoid blaming and shaming:** we live in a toxic system, but no one individual is to blame.



>**9. We are a nonviolent network:** using nonviolent strategy and tactics as the most effective way to bring about change.


>**10. We are based on autonomy and decentralisation:** we collectively create the structures we need to challenge power.
