Our Vision: Our vision is for strong and resilient communities empowered to create a fairer, more just world by dismantling the oppressive systems that fuel climate change. We are working towards a future where Australia is a world leader in responding to the climate crisis. Fossil fuels lie dormant underground, replaced by clean energy. And the influence of the fossil fuel industry has been buried, too. Our politics reflect the hopes and dreams of people, not corporations. Social movements work together, led by First Nations people, tackling injustices, holding institutions to account, and forcing them to protect people and the planet.
What We Do: Our mission is to stop the mining and burning of coal and gas in Australia.
How We Work: Justice Centred
We work to tackle the systems underpinning the climate crisis and act in solidarity with those who are most impacted by the climate crisis.
• People Powered: We believe that communities of people taking action together is our best chance at tackling the climate crisis.
• Disruptive: We believe that lasting change requires movements that disrupt the status quo, build mass public support and force decision-makers to act.
• Prioritise Networks: We believe that the most transformational change occurs when movements act with focus on clear, compelling goals, whilst remaining open to grassroots power, autonomy and creativity.
• Momentum Driven: We support movements to seize and create major moments of momentum that drive people and decision-makers to act.
• Activating the Alarmed: We see it as our responsibility to provide the almost five million Australians who are alarmed about the climate crisis with a place to channel their alarm into strategic and sustained action.
• Leaderful: We believe in our responsibility to help people unlock their innate leadership potential so that we can build the capacity of movements to achieve more than we ever imagined.
