SP—CE is a value-driven organization. We urgently work on transformative and innovative change with aligned collaborators.
The following is an overview of our core values, principles and frameworks.
We believe shared values and vision are at the root of incredible work. We strive to uphold these values, and collaborate only with those aligned with our core values and principles.
We believe in every human's right to safe shelter, clean water, energy, and food, and freedom of movement and self-determination. We believe in equal rights to all.
We recognize the need to protect our natural environments from further degradation and climate change resulting from wasteful, linear processes of space-making.
We believe in the need to empower everyone within new, fair economic systems, and the need to minimize the growing gap between rich and poor.
We recognize the reality of material scarcity while facing the pressures of accommodating growing populations, and believe that circular and regenerative models of design and economy are the only viable paths forward.
We believe in collaborative research, open knowledge-sharing, and accessible networks and events.
We believe in proving innovation in real-world, contextual situations which are scalable and co-created with local stakeholders.
We believe the old model of practise has come to an end, and innovation necessarily requires operating across industry barriers and silos.
We believe in a distinct, Canadian identity, one that upholds values of multi-culturalism, freedom of thought and expression, and equal rights and access to all. All our work is meant to empower Canadians, express our unique identities and uphold our shared values.
