VISION

Empower young Muslims and build community resilience

We exist to empower individuals and build community resilience by promoting an positive counter narrative and debunking hate speech, Islamophobia, and extremist views in the public domain.

---

MISSION

Through our people and programs, we work to make our society a stronger, more resilient one.

We will build ongoing relationships with young Muslims, in order to educate, support, integrate, and advocate for them. We will educate the wider Australian community regarding effective service delivery, policy development, social inclusion, and youth empowerment. Importantly, we will evolve as a unified, strong voice countering the hate speech, Islamophobia, and extremist views in the public domain, so that our young people are empowered to choose their own positive narrative.
