Core Values – IF Publication
At IF Publication, our work is guided by a set of unwavering core values. These principles shape every post, project, and interaction on our platform:
1. Curiosity First
We believe that every question—no matter how simple or complex—is worth asking. Curiosity is the starting point of all knowledge, creativity, and community change.
2. Radical Access
Knowledge should be free, inclusive, and accessible to all. We break down barriers to publishing and learning so that anyone can participate, regardless of background or credentials.
3. Authentic Voice
We uplift real people telling real stories. Whether you’re an artist, a student, a researcher, or just thinking out loud, your perspective matters.
4. Collaboration Over Competition
We reject elitism and gatekeeping. Instead, we build tools and spaces that allow people to connect, share skills, and co-create across disciplines and identities.
5. Transparency and Trust
We maintain open communication about our platform decisions, partnerships, and policies. We expect the same honesty from our contributors and community.
6. Ethical Publishing
We commit to respecting privacy, giving proper credit, and disclosing conflicts of interest. We do not tolerate plagiarism, hate speech, or misinformation.
7. Decentralized Power
We’re not here to dictate truth—we’re here to hold space for many truths. We empower users to think critically, ask questions, and build community-driven conversations.
8. Joyful Resistance
We honor art, protest, imagination, and play as powerful forms of resistance. In a world that tells us to conform, we celebrate those who choose to create.
Always questioning. Always thinking. Always asking. Always IF.
