Vision
In the cities of Romania each citizen must enjoy a clean environment. Communities and authorities must support continuously the sustainable development of the urban environment.
Mission
In our urban ecology laboratory we place the quality of the environment at the heart of all the projects we develop.
We focus on two directions:

- First direction: we contribute to the construction of a sustainable metropolis, by green education or by promoting alternative transportation.
- Second direction: we support constructive dialogue between public and private sectors, civil society and authorities.[/list][quote align=\”center\” color=\”#999999\”]The concern for environment starts at small scale, from the people’s apartments, from the front of their buildings and from personal choices.

Values
[list type=\”check\”]
- Creativity: we generate new ideas, we encourage change and we take calculated risks in developing sustainable initiatives.
- Proactive and with impact in the society: we take note of the problems around us, from the ordinary citizen’s point of view, and we initiate activities to solve them. We do not wait for things to get solved on their own and we start from the root of the problem, generating sustainable results, with visible impact in the society.
- Open and constructive attitude: we respect our partners, we are open to new ideas and initiatives; we believe that the best solutions come from team work, not individual work.
- Equidistance: our interest is that of the cities’ inhabitants. We do not have political color or appurtenance.
- The power of positive example: we believe that change is easier to accept by creating positive experiences.
