VISION

Mountains Community Resource Network (MCRN) is a dynamic peak organisation whose actions are founded on social justice and community development principles. We value community and cultural diversity, and we challenge inequality. On behalf of organisations, groups and individuals, and concerning the Blue Mountains as a whole, the Mountains Community Resource Network will work towards achieving a socially just community in the Blue Mountains and alleviating community disempowerment caused by poverty, discrimination and human rights injustices.

Commitment to Social Justice

MCRN has a commitment to the following four principles:

Equity - a fairer distribution of resources and power ensuring that marginalised groups are given priority.

Access - ensuring fair and equal opportunities for all people to those services that are important for their quality of life.

Participation - maximising the opportunities for people to participate in the circumstances that affect their lives. This includes being involved with the management, service provision and planning of MCRN.

Rights - fairer and more comprehensive human rights that are equally accessible by all people regardless of their age, gender, cultural background, race, sexual orientation, marital status, abilities, health, responsibility as a carer and income. This includes civil, political, industrial, social, environmental and economic rights.
