Hi Mike,
As always, it's nice to talk to you and thanks for bringing your concern to this forum. As a professional association, PMI remains neutral and non-political. Our mission is to equip project professionals with the skills, knowledge, and ethics to lead responsibly — no matter the circumstances.
Often that means responding to natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, or fires. But it also means coming together in situations where people are displaced, lives are disrupted, and communities face urgent challenges — regardless of the cause. In these moments, our role is to empower project professionals to apply their skills to help organize, communicate, rebuild, and provide hope.
And this aligns with PMI’s culture values:
- Make It Easy – by sharing tools, resources, and ways to act quickly.
- Aim Higher – by applying project management to create meaningful, lasting impact.
- Be Welcoming – by creating a safe and supportive space where everyone can contribute.
- Embrace Curiosity – by learning from one another’s experiences.
- Together We Can – by uniting across borders, backgrounds, and perspectives to help those in need.
So while PMI does not take political positions, we do stand for care, connection, and action -- and we believe our community can make a real difference when we live these values.
That’s why PMI in Times of Need exists: to create a space where we can listen, learn, and act together. I encourage everyone here to share ideas, stories, or opportunities to help, because your voice or knowledge may be exactly what someone else in our community is looking for.
I sincerely believe we can turn care into impact,
Ricardo
