Culture


'…respect the principles of social justice, equity and therefore believe that the operation of economic
systems should result in the material resources of the community being so distributed as to sub?serve the common good, that there should be adequate means of livelihood for all, that labour should not be exploited or forced by economic necessity to operate in inhumane conditions but that there should be opportunity for advancement on the basis of recognition of merit, ability and integrity".

- Constitutional reform. Citizens Alliance recognises that it is absolutely ecessary to bring about constitutional reform in order to achieve maximum participation in governance. Citizens Alliance will continue consultation on issues of: local government reform, the structure of the Senate, the balance of power between the Executive and the Parliament, the power of the President, channelling power and resources to communities, transparency of cabinet decisions and structures for increasing participation by citizens.

- Transparency. Citizens Alliance is committed to creating a culture of transparency and accountability. The mechanisms for participation must rely on on the free flow of information on all aspects of the operations of government and the individuals elected to serve.

- The base-up approach. Citizens Alliance will develop a method of governance that has at its core, participation by everyone. We recognise that government and its agents SERVE the citizens. We understand that citizens define the agenda for the distribution of resources and the management of development. Citizens Alliance will decentralise so that communities have more power.

- Equity. Principles of fairness and equity inform all the actions, decisions and methodologies of Citizens Alliance.
