Wider horizons. Geographically, culturally, intellectually. 

Better language skills. We want to understand.

​A global mindset. And whatever it takes to make it a competent global citizen's mindset.
​
Responsibility for each other, our children and our planet.

Opportunities to live fulfilling lives through fair give-and-take.

An unequivocal commitment to humanitarian and democratic values.

Closed ranks against populism, nationalism and all forms of extremism.

Every member in the community has pledged to adhere to these mutual goals and values.

Addendum. What we don't want.

Since March 2020 we have learned that we have to put in writing what we do not want here.
Can't beat a clear statement to prevent misunderstandings from the start, can you?

This community is no place for conspiracy theories and/or myths of any kind. There is no room here to spread fear or hate against anyone; we do not allow to portray people, political parties, religious beliefs or countries as evil and we will not tolerate manipulative talk or action of any kind. 

We stand with science, with medicine, with hard-fought-for democracy and decent human conduct. Thank you.

We speak the same language.
​In many languages.
