Our Core Values

Greenpeace is a network of independent organisations that uses peaceful, creative confrontation to expose global environmental problems and develop solutions for a green and peaceful future. 

Greenpeace Ukraine’s work is grounded in several key principles. They are reflected in all our campaigns, and they guide whatever we do, wherever we do it.

Personal responsibility and nonviolence. We take action based on conscience. This means we are accountable for our actions and take personal responsibility. We are committed to peacefulness; everyone at Greenpeace Ukraine is trained in nonviolence.

Independence. All Greenpeace network organizations do not accept money from governments, corporations, or political parties. Individual contributions, together with grants from foundations, are the only source of our funding.

Greenpeace Ukraine has no permanent friends or foes. If your government or company is willing to change, we will work with you to achieve your aims. Reverse course, and we will be back. What matters isn’t words, but actions.

Promoting solutions. It’s not enough for Greenpeace Ukraine to point the finger; we develop, research, and promote concrete steps towards a green and peaceful future for all of us.
