Mission, Vision & Goals
The WorldFish Center is part of the Future Harvest Alliance of international research centers supported by the Consultative Group for International Agricultural Research.
Mission:
“To reduce poverty and hunger by improving fisheries and aquaculture”.
Our Vision:
“To be the science partner of choice for delivering aquaculture and fisheries solutions in developing countries”.
Taken together our Mission and Vision clarify our fundamental purpose and ambition.
Our Values codify the principles by which we will operate as an organization to achieve these ends:
- Our two most fundamental values are integrity and trust. We will trust each other to be honest and open, and hold one another accountable for honoring that trust.
- In the workplace, we will strive for fairness and equity. We will provide equal opportunities for all staff, recognize achievement, celebrate diversity and respect individual dignity. We will strive to practice effective leadership at all levels and empower staff so that they can give their best.
- In our work, we will search for excellence and innovation in all that we do. We will continually seek to improve the quality and efficiency of our products and services, and accept the need for risk taking and genuine mistakes as opportunities for learning.
- We will also value teamwork over individual effort, sharing knowledge amongst ourselves and our partners to build on our collective strengths and interdependencies.
Goals:
- Partnership
Rationale: We will not be able to grow unless we do so in partnership with others and we will need to focus on this if we are to realize our Vision.
- Excellence
Rationale: Excellence in both our science and the way we operate must be a priority if we are to meet the challenges that a commitment to growth present.
- Growth
Rationale: To fulfill our global mandate we need to grow in size and in terms of geographic presence over the next 3–5 years.
