Honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi:

Economic activity must support equity and self-determination for Māori while protecting all taonga.

Ecological Wisdom:

Our economy must urgently adjust to operate within environmental limits to ensure the natural world can continue to support human life.

Social Responsibility:

Economic benefits and burdens must be fairly distributed to enable all New Zealanders to participate fully in society and have their collective material needs met.

Appropriate Decision-Making:

The economy must be democratically managed. Communities and tangata whenua must have meaningful influence over decisions about economic activities that affect them.
