Values
Volunteering
We enjoy helping, and we enjoy knowing that whatever effort we’ve made has made a difference. It is our way of life to get connected with others and contribute to humanity.
Integrity
We act ethically, with honesty and transparency, setting the highest standards for ourselves as we work together and with partners, donors and the global community.
Compassion
We are kind showing our commitment to serving others with empathy, concern, and dignity. Compassion is our calling to love our neighbors, and support those who are in need.
Care
We are mindful of each other’s well-being, professional growth, and development. We are sensitive to the well-being of our staff and offer appropriate support.
Accountability
We hold ourselves and each other responsible for our behaviors; this means being answerable for our actions
Respect
We treat each other with the same level of thoughtfulness we want for ourselves, and we promote diversity, inclusion and a sense of belonging for all without discrimination, bias and prejudice.
Trust
We depend on and believe in each other to act in line with the core values and mission of CTE and in the best interests of project participants.
