Values
The Values of CQID are fundamental to the successful implementation of the Strategic Plan. The 2011 – 2013 Strategic Plan has been developed upon the following platform of shared values:
Cooperation and trust
- A people’s issues can not be addressed in political isolation. Different jurisdictional responsibilities between levels of government, and diversity within communities means that outcomes are more readily achieved through partnerships based on cooperation and goodwill. By adhering to the principle of cooperation we can establish collaborative relationships built on trust and good faith.
Sustainability
- Sustainability should be a key item in the planning process. The value of specific initiatives needs to be measured not only by their immediate impact but also by ensuring long-term sustainablility.
Self actualisation
- Self actualisation is the desire for self-fulfillment, or more broadly, the tendency for an individual to become what they potentially are. This might be phrased as the desire to become more and more what one is, to become everything that one is capable of becoming. This value is fundamental to the identification of an individual as, among other things, a member of the Australian Indigenous community.
