Professionalism:
We value professionalism as we believe that every member should be committed to and act responsibly towards the APSS community.
Respecting diversity:
We value diversity, as we believe tolerance is indispensable for national and international communication and cooperation and unity.
Knowledge:
We value knowledge as it fundamentally creates power to critical thinking for politics that we promote to acquire also outside arenas provided by universities and social surroundings.
