Our Values

  1. In the ACER community, and in all the events ACER Integration hosts, we value diversity of opinion, beliefs, background, ways of living, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation.

  2. We value a safe community culture that rests upon compassionate listening, and we keep the personal sharings of others confidential.

  3. Our default mode is witnessing, rather than advice giving.

  4. If anyone’s behaviour is harmful to others, we will respond to restore safety.

  5. Sitting with feelings can bring up deep pain that requires one-to-one holding. We are all responsible for ensuring we have adequate support before we engage in deep self-reflection.

  6. We stand for human rights and equality, and we acknowledge the polycrisis.
