How we work
Develop, never generate
Open Outrigger is a capacity-builder, not a document-generator. Capability and judgement should come before automation.
Built with the region, inclusive by design
Open Outrigger will be co-designed with local organisations, including those led by women, people with disability and Indigenous Peoples.
Permanently free and open source
Local organisations never pay for Open Outrigger. Those with resources fund work released free to all.
Quality matched to risk
Every Open Outrigger module will have expert-validated baselines, with review gates on safeguarding-critical frameworks.
Non-extractive
We take nothing that isn't ours. Your files stay on your systems, unseen by Open Outrigger. We always respect intellectual property and credit the guidance we draw on.
Open convening
The Outrigger Crew will be an inclusive community of practice for responsible AI use. We will work in the open, share what we learn and properly acknowledge contributions.
