MISSION

To promote change in the Canary Islands towards a socio-economic model that cares for biodiversity, and for people as part of it.

More specifically, we develop this mission through the following objectives:

To promote the sovereignty of the Canary Islands territory.
To conserve nature and biodiversity.
To protect animals.

VISION

A sustainable and sovereign Canarian archipelago.

The sustainability for which we strive must integrate, in a balanced way, environmental, social and economic aspects.

The sovereignty we defend for the Canary Islands is food, energy, economic and information sovereignty, and involves the participation of the local community to make decisions on these fundamental aspects of their lives.

Values

Commitment

This is the internal value that best defines us. We are a team of people 100% involved and motivated with our mission and vision.

Autonomy

Is a fundamental value of Canarina. In the foundation, autonomy manifests itself in several ways:

We do not depend on external funding. This strength allows us to act in full accordance with our principles, and not have to comply with any dictates from corporate or political entities.
Internally, we work according to objectives and deadlines set by the teams themselves. To meet them, each team and each person has the autonomy to decide how best to organise their tasks.

Creativity

This is the seed of Canarina and our differentiating tool for transformation, awareness-raising, sensitisation and education. It is present in every corner, in every meeting and in every presentation of the foundation.

Transformation

We aspire to a transformation that goes beyond a simple reform within the capitalist framework. We believe that transformation entails movement, conflict and revolution, to catalyse sufficient change towards an eco-social transition that leaves no one behind.

Transparency

We want to provide clear and honest information about our work, communicating assertively and respecting our principles, to build internal and external trust.

In the interest of upholding our values, we refrain from copying and pasting. So if you find a mission, vision or values that are identical elsewhere, they have been plagiarised.
