The core values which underpin the co-production approach can be drawn upon to produce different models which are appropriate for different contexts towards an optimal social solution.

These values include:

• Assets - every human can be a contributor, there should be 'no more throw away people'

• Redefining work - to include whatever it takes to rear healthy children, preserve families , make neighbourhoods safer

• Reciprocity - we need each other, stop creating dependencies or devaluing people

• Social capital - look social infrastructures, invest in them as thy are essential to positive development of communities
