Our Values
The Helen Clark Foundation promotes the values demonstrated by Helen Clark across her lengthy public career: inclusion, fairness, and sustainability. We believe that these values are an essential bedrock for a well-functioning democracy, and for effective public policy.
Aotearoa New Zealand is our home, and we approach our work with a view to both learning from international best practice as well as contributing a distinctly local voice to policy research.
