National Sea Grant Core Values, adopted by Pennsylvania Sea Grant
Core values that will continue to guide the behavior and actions of the National Sea Grant College Program are:
• Visionary - Advance innovative solutions that address emerging challenges (science and stewardship) and encourage creativity, initiative and innovation.
• Collaborative – Seek partnerships that leverage our strengths. Be responsive and accessible, respect partners, maintain scientific neutrality, integrate diverse expertise and provide the science and knowledge needed to inform stakeholders.
• Dedicated to Sustainability - Communicate the importance of good stewardship and the value of the services that the coastal, ocean, and Great Lakes’ ecosystems provide to the Nation.
• Accountable - operate with integrity and transparency; maintain quality and relevance in administration, management and oversight.
