The self-understanding of the KuB is based on solidarity, respect, and the willingness to take criticism seriously and address it constructively. The organization is self-organized and avoids institutional hierarchies to promote an inclusive and participatory working environment[2].

The KuB is independent of funding conditions that contradict its fundamental stance and prioritizes the public expression of criticism rather than suppressing it out of fear of funders[2].
