Commitment: Working with urgency and commitment to be successful from individual and organisational perspectives.
- Timeframes are always met unless urgent circumstances mean we have to renegotiate new timeframes with all parties involved.

Professionalism: At all times we act with integrity, providing quality service, being reliable and responsible.
- We do not upset one another intentionally, always endeavouring to present negative feedback constructively.
- We take pride and ownership in all that we do and say.
- We never talk about people behind their backs
Personal development: We value learning, feedback, coaching and mentoring.
- Coaching and mentoring are commonplace here; we all coach and mentor one another.

- Whenever we undertake a project it is our responsibility to express our training needs and gather the required skills.
- We each take responsibility to gain the required development to meet our clients’ and partners’ needs.

Organisational Background/profile
The Creative Centre for Communication and Development (CCCD) is a registered charitable non-governmental organisation advancing communication rights of marginalised and vulnerable people through building their communication capacities and advocacy skills in a creative way to systematically address human rights and all other fundamental freedoms.
CCCD was formed in 2008 by a team of qualified communication and media practitioners who have experience in working with marginalised and vulnerable groups.
The organisation operates at grassroots level and focuses on building local capacities and abilities of marginalised and vulnerable people in the strategic and creative use of communication to express their needs, to make their voices heard, to manage their own communication, and to participate fully in their own development through implementing participatory communication approaches to change public values and beliefs that are essential for long-term social change.
Our programmes are people-centred, premised on communication and meet the needs of the people on the ground.
With a wide range of communication tools, CCCD recognises and advocates for people to uphold Communication Rights by empowering marginalised and vulnerable people to use and control communication in order to change their lives in the New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO).
CCCD thus believes that without communication rights, human beings cannot live in freedom, justice, peace and dignity
