Our official mission statement, as outlined in our Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) constitution, is "To advance the education and personal development of early career professionals through engagement in academic research in the space field".
Making a mission statement is easy, but making sure that everything we do helps us achieve that mission is harder. We've established three principle values to help guide us:
We'll create a working environment where everyone can contribute.
- Provide a quality digital environment for remote collaboration.
- Embrace asynchronous communication and remote working best practices.
- Ensure everyone has access to the resources they need to be work effectively.
We want everyone to engage and grow with Conex, embracing individual differences.
- Attract participants from a variety of geographical locations and backgrounds.
- Remove barriers to entry for demographics typically underrepresented in STEM.
- Enforce strict Bullying & Harassment policies.
We'll be honest and upfront about our processes and the decisions we make.
- Docuement our processes and policies in this handbook.
- Be honest with team members, and involve them in decision making.
- Ensure accountability is upheld at every level, in every decision.
