We are defined and driven by our mission, and believe that values are crucial to accomplishing our goals in a way that is equitable and accessible to all.

Here are some of the core values underlying 2i2c:

• 2i2c values fairness and justice as requirements for successful communities.
• 2i2c values learning and discovery for all people.
• 2i2c values collaborating and connecting to foster environments for learning and discovery.

We serve these values through a commitment to a few core principles:

• Build tools that maximize flexibility and choice
• Collaborate with open source and scientific communities
• Provide community and core support, not just new features
• Build tools that are accessible along a variety of dimensions

These principles help us guarantee our users the Right to Replicate the infrastructure we manage for them without having to rely on us.

In order to sustain itself and grow to better-accomplish its mission, 2i2c receives funding from the following sources:

• Project-focused grants. We lead and collaborate on several projects that involve developing and supporting infrastructure for research and education. See our projects page for more information.
