Our culture

culture iuue 2

We strongly believe that “means” are as important as the “ends”, and that achieving great things in one domain while destroying or disintegrating others does not exemplify true greatness.

We, therefore, care deeply about our partners, donors, communities, and most importantly, our team.
We do not believe that social change must feel like a great sacrifice, or that in order to solve problems for others, one must ignore problems in their own lives.
We want our team members to have happy and satisfying lives, not only in purpose but also in material living.

We try to pay our people as well as we can and do not accept projects that downplay the efforts and experiences our team members bring to the table.

Decision-Making Approach

We prioritize decisions that benefit communities first, then the organization. In conflicts, we always choose the community’s success.

Our Belief System

We trust our path and choose to walk it, even when it goes against the norm. Without that conviction, our existence has no meaning.

Embracing Growth & Experimentation

Since 2014, we’ve embraced change through evidence and fearless experimentation—growing not just bigger, but better, alongside those eager to learn and adapt.

Commitment to Learning & Change

We embrace change through evidence and trial, not out of fear of financial loss or stagnation. The Nook concept has evolved since 2014.

Our Flexibility & Values

Our small size makes us agile, but our values keep us grounded. We refuse income-driven projects and resist pressures to compromise our path .Growth, for the sake of growth is not our goal - meaning is.

In making decisions, we check if the decision is first positive for the communities we work with and then worry if it is positive for the organisation. In conflict, we must choose the success of the community, and this is a reminder we keep giving ourselves time and again
