"Assume good faith" is a motto oft used in collaborative work, suggesting that upon initial contact with another contributor it is best to assume that the other person is working in good faith. This initial working assumption may be changed by later events or experiences.

The principle is also the keystone of the leading strategy in a tournament of computer programs simulating The Prisoner's Dilemma.
