On June 2, a rally was held in Littleton Gardens, Bega. The rally was called “Enough is Enough” and brought together representatives from the Djiringanj community, the union movement, National Parks, Rural Australians for Refugees, the Sapphire Social Justice Advocates, Clean Energy For Eternity, and Lock the Gate among others.
“The rally was well attended by local citizens concerned with the damage done both to our environment and our communities by the moribund philosophy of neo-liberalism,” organisers have said.
“At the completion of the rally many participants decided that, in order to make changes necessary for our future, an organisation that could maintain momentum and provide a forum for discussion and activism was needed.
“Alliance for Our Common Future was thus born.”
To mark the new alliance with an official launch, the movie “The Bentley Effect” will be screened at 7pm on Thursday, November 29, at the Funhouse, Bega.
The evening will also include an open space forum to share ideas on the basis that “community change starts with open dialogue”.
Entry is via donation and attendees are asked to bring a plate to share.
