NZAIA and Ethics

The ethical guidelines in our Rules of Incorporation require that the Association and its members:

1. Commit themselves to principles of social justice, sustainable development and high environmental quality.
2. Demonstrate a concern for the social and environmental effects of development and policy decisions.
3. Consider the effects of development, programme and policy decisions on all sectors of the community, with reference to relevant (especially social and environmental) characteristics. 
4. Be committed to the empowerment of all people, including indigenous people and those who are disadvantaged, to influence the development, policy and programme decisions which affect them.
   

* Note the above guidelines are not listed in any order of importance.
