Our Motto
Moonee Valley — Let’s Be The Change.
Our Vision
Our vision is for a fair, inclusive, and equitable community that lives healthy, happy, connected lives in a green, biodiverse, climate-safe environment and operates within the means of our living planet.
Our Mission
Our mission is to constructively engage in and encourage evidence-based action on climate change, sustainable living, community connection and local resilience in Moonee Valley.
Our Aim

We Value
Community
Meaningful, inclusive and culturally safe and respectful connections with people and places.
Action
Constructive, collaborative, and effective solutions for the things we care about.
Care
Compassion and kindness for ourselves, others, all living things, and our planet.
Acknowledgements
We respectfully acknowledge the traditional custodians of Moonee Valley, the Wurundjeri Woiwurrung people of the Kulin Nation, their spirits, ancestors, elders and community members past and present.
We acknowledge the urgency of the climate emergency and the need to rapidly reduce greenhouse gas emissions to have any chance of keeping global temperature rise to near 1.5ºC.
