Core Values of the Parliamentary Society
At the heart of The Parliamentary Society for Arts, Fashion, and Sports are six core values: collaboration, transparency, education, engagement, advocacy, and connection. These values guide every aspect of their work, ensuring that the Society remains a powerful advocate for the younger generation within the creative sectors.
Collaboration
The Society believes in the power of partnership. By bringing together professionals from various fields—including government officials, ambassadors, artists, and athletes—they create a network that supports and protects the interests of young people in the Arts, Fashion, and Sports industries. This collaborative approach ensures that the unique needs and challenges of these sectors are addressed with a comprehensive and united front.
Transparency
Open and honest communication is a cornerstone of the Society’s work. They operate with a commitment to transparency, ensuring that their actions and decisions are clear and understandable to all stakeholders. This transparency builds trust, allowing for a genuine dialogue between young people and the government, free from political insulation.
Education
The Society is deeply invested in the power of education. They aim to educate young people about the workings of government and the importance of their role within it. By fostering awareness and understanding, the Society empowers young individuals to become active, responsible stakeholders in their nation’s future.
Engagement
Recognizing the growing disillusionment with politics among British youth, the Society is committed to rebuilding trust and promoting civic participation. Through targeted initiatives, they work to increase political engagement and voting among young people, ensuring that their voices are heard in the democratic process.
Advocacy
The Society is not just a representative body; it is an active advocate for urgent issues affecting young people. Whether addressing modern human trafficking, slavery, drugs, or financial challenges, the Society is at the forefront of advocating for change in the Arts, Fashion, and Sports industries. Their advocacy efforts are driven by a deep commitment to improving the lives of the younger generation.
Connection
One of the Society’s primary goals is to forge lasting connections between young creative individuals and the government. Through regular meetings, talks, seminars, and activities, they create a two-way dialogue that benefits society as a whole. These connections help ensure that the government is responsive to the needs of the creative sectors, leading to more inclusive and effective policies.
