Action Strategy

The Foundation's main action strategy is to use the 'NED-Net(work)' of volunteers to assist and encourage individuals and groups to adopt the principles of 'involvement', and in each person's case to do this through a broad, species-nurturing, interpersonally developmental approach to how they tackle their particular specialised work role or field of interest.

Individual activists are thus encouraged to adopt the Taoist maxim: "Follow me, the wise man said, but he walked behind". Personal contact and word-of-mouth are centrally important in our process, and are basic to the way we have been coming together as a Board to develop our mutuality and derive productivity out of our differences.
