Our collective is building a resilient community around the principles of mutual
aid.

All we have is each other, so it's critical that we provide a resilient
community network that can support, sustain and grow itself in an autonomous,
tolerant, diverse and inclusive manner.

We will enable this by providing resources, information and tooling for
collaboration, communication and event organising that's informed by ongoing
discovery and facilitation of community needs.

  In the practice of mutual aid, which we can retrace to the earliest beginnings
  of evolution, we thus find the positive and undoubted origin of our ethical
  conceptions; and we can affirm that in the ethical progress of man, mutual
  support not mutual struggle—has had the leading part.

  In its wide extension, even at the present time, we also see the best
  guarantee of a still loftier evolution of our species.

Being involved with our collective and associated groups should feel like
living in alignment with our hopes for the world, our passions and enliven us
in an environment of reciprocity and respect.
