Principles
Freedom, spirit of initiative
Funky Citizens is a dynamic environment where intrapreneurship is encouraged and supported.
Agility and perseverance
If we have an idea for a project and we think we can do it, we get to it and quickly pull out an MVP.
Avoiding doubling ideas
Rather than competing with another NGO with a similar project, it's best we join forces, if possible.
Aligning with the strategy
We have a large array of projects but they all revolve around the goals in our strategy. Like pieces of a puzzle, they only make sense in the bigger picture.
Profesionalism and quality
Financed projects have priority. We work on a high standard just like we'd appreciate being served as clients.
Openness and multidisciplinarity
We provide the organizational platform for citizens who are just as funky in spirit as we are, but who do not own NGOs and need one. We also work collaboratively, with volunteers and experts from various disciplines.
Transversal components
Relevant interpreted data → educational resources in an approachable language → advocacy oriented movement
Independence and the relationship with funders
Regardless of donor size, we reserve the right to be independent in choosing the projects we focus on. We respect our signed contracts, but we will not sign contracts that contradict our principles.
