Listening – Learning – Collaborating
Listening – Learning – Collaborating
We believe in:
1. Relationships – Only through long term relationships will people develop the trust necessary for peer to peer communication. Through long term relationships ATC strives to listen, learn, discuss, collaborate and demonstrate appropriate technologies.
2. Opportunity – We believe that opportunity is more beneficial than aid. Opportunity allows people to discover solutions within themselves, it harnesses human creativity and enhances human dignity.
3. Transparency – We strive to make the Appropriate Technology Collaborative as transparent, documented and replicable as possible. Our hope is that other NGOs will learn from our successes and avoid our failures.
4. Replicability – All of our techniques and the technologies we catalog are available to the public. We encourage anyone who is interested in our work to contact us. If you represent an existing NGO and want to use our designs, or if you are interested in starting a new NGO, we can help. Please use the Contact Us form on this website.
