We Nua-Celts strive to live as best we can according to the following maxim of conduct (10/24): We decide self-determined for self-limitation and against the excessive fulfillment of artificial desires. We accept gratefully what others give us to the best of our ability and give ourselves in gifts, even immaterial ones such as care, what we can without expecting anything in return.

We Nua-Celts strive to live as best we can according to the following maxims of conduct (8-9/24): We replace our self-interested thinking and acting by striving for the highest good of All-That-Is. We acknowledge the destructive effect of growth in a finite world. A good life for all people is only possible with a decreasing world GDP, which is distributed as equally as possible to all. That means that we in the global north have to limit ourselves (#degrowth), so that self-determined developments are still possible in the global south. Source: The Nua-Celtic Manifesto
