Successful communities are focused on common goals and work together, resolving differences in thinking through dialogue and finding the best common solutions. This can only be achieved when mutual trust prevails and is built
on the basis of core values. These values also give us the foundations for personal stability and self-confidence.
Trust and respect
We trust each other and work together. We respect people, whatever their differences, listen to different opinions and work together to find solutions. We value hard-working, professional and courageous people who are not afraid of change.
Integrity
We are honest, we don't lie, we don't steal, we don't deceive and we have the courage to do what is right.
Helping each other
We help people in need so that no one goes hungry or homeless. We support each other in good times and bad.
Loyalty
We are proud of Slovenia. Just as we nurture our language and heritage, we learn from others.
Balance
In all areas, we seek balance to protect ourselves, society and the environment for future generations.

My support underlines the importance of fundamental values that bind us together as a society and lead us to a more prosperous future. This project, which aims to raise awareness of these values and integrate them into educational and social institutions, is a step towards towards a stronger, united and respectful Slovenia.
