Our values

We are geo-ethical

The North West Highlands is a unique, special, and sensitive environment. People exist as part of a wider earthsystem and we all have an obligation to act sustainably. We are respectful

We respect each other within our own organisations and foster open communication, and a safe environment. We respect other businesses, visitors, our communities, and other stakeholders and listen to their concerns and feedback. Professional, respectful, and ethical behaviour is expected from all associated with the Geopark. We reserve the right to challenge behaviour that does not meet these standards.

We are inclusive

We will be as transparent in our activities as possible. We will be open-minded and seek to understand and empathise with those different to ourselves. We will examine own biases and behaviours to avoid stereotyping. We will work collaboratively with others and build upon partnerships, sharing information and knowledge in the pursuit of achieving our vision for the North West Highlands Geopark We are creative

We look for creative solutions to the challenges to achieving our vision for the North West Highlands Geopark and to building a strong organisation.
