• is not compulsorily undertaken to receive pensions or government allowances,
• is a legitimate way in which citizens can participate in the activities of their community,
• is a vehicle for individuals or groups to address human, environmental and social needs,
• is an activity performed in the not for profit sector only,
• is not a substitute for paid work,
• respects the rights, dignity and culture of others, and
• promotes human rights and equality.
