The Sunrise Project is built on a foundation of 5 values that guide what we do and how we work: Prioritise Relationships We understand that the quality of our relationships determines the effectiveness of our actions. We actively nurture honest, healthy relationships of mutual respect in our team and with our movement and funding partners. C’mon It’s 2022 We relentlessly ask: “What is required to solve the climate crises?” We push ourselves to imagine and implement the scale of action required. We move quickly and are willing to risk failing (fast) in pursuit of large-scale systemic change. We Don’t Live Single Issue Lives It is a long road to climate justice but we are committed to doing the work we can today so we are closer tomorrow. We challenge structural inequality and strive to bring justice in our programs, the movements we are part of, and our own organisation. It’s Not About Us We’re here to play a part in scaling social movements that can change the world. We prioritise enabling others to do their best work rather than trying to do it ourselves. We understand how much can be achieved if you don’t need to take the credit for it and we generously celebrate the work of others. Dare To Lead Powerful organisations and movements are leaderful. We support each other to have the courage to step up and lead, to take initiative and to solve problems when we see them.

We believe that a diversity of experiences and perspectives will help us build stronger strategies, teams and movements. We strongly encourage First Nations people, people of colour, people living outside of cities, people living with disabilities and others from diverse backgrounds to apply. We are continually working on becoming a better workplace for everyone.
