Mission statement of the Institute of Science in Society (www.i-sis.org.uk) To promote science responsible to civil society and the public good, independent of commercial and other special interests, or of government control. Science is intrinsically honest, open and pluralistic, and disagreements must be openly and democratically debated. Science should be unbiased and accessible to all, regardless of gender, age, race, religion or caste. To ensure public participation in decision-making, accurate information should be promptly accessible to the public in unbiased and uncensored forms. To develop a science that can help make the world sustainable, equitable and life-enhancing for all its inhabitants. Science should be based on a holistic, ecological perspective that takes proper account of the complexity, diversity and interdependence of all nature. It is consonant with the holistic perspectives of diverse indigenous sciences across the world. It is in accordance with the precautionary principle: when there is reason to suspect threats of serious, irreversible damage, lack of scientific evidence or consensus must not be used to postpone preventative action. To integrate science in society and promote its highest moral values. Science should contribute to the physical and spiritual well-being of all societies. It must promote equity, justice, democracy and freedom from oppression for all.
