Why We Exist

We exist because we all need each other. We all depend on each other and we are all valuable, important and worthy of the same treatment and the same opportunities.

We can only build the future, a future worthy of our children, by standing together and fostering a community of equality and dignity for all.

We are a country steeped in indigenous histories and fused together in a mosaic of cultures. We pride ourselves of living in a community who respects and values differences. Equality is a right, and as it is with many of our rights, we must fight for it. We must never take it for granted and always remind each other of its importance.

We exist to ensure all of us experience this right. That we never forget how our differences make us stronger and how our conviction of being a fair and just community is always upheld.

We all have a role to play. Each one of us is responsible for the quality of the community we live in. We all play a role in building our community and in building the future. We can all demonstrate our support and the value and respect we have for each other, with every interaction and at every moment. It’s our choice what kind of future we build. Our actions define us.
