Our Principles

  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 – using ideas such as “Momentum-driven organizing” 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 reflection 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 for 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 non-violent network

    Using non-violent 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. Anyone who follows these core principles and values can take action in the name of Extinction Rebellion.
