Action Points
Rodney Inclusive Communities Initiative (RICI) is committed to creating a 'new space' for everyone within the Rodney District. We aim to:
-
Provide a website with local information related to inclusion, accessibility & disability support. This online 'inclusion hub' is a work in progress.
-
Initiate inclusive and educational activities that will benefit everyone, including those with disabilities who live in, or are visiting, our beautiful region. By doing so, we hope to encourage our communities to become more inclusive and accessible; a place where everyone can feel accepted and valued.
-
Connect and collaborate with existing community groups both in Rodney and the wider Auckland region.
-
Advocate for more disability services in our region, and provide feedback to Government, Auckland Council and the Rodney Local Board, on matters related to inclusion & accessibility.
“Inclusion is not bringing people into
what already exists; it is making a new space,
a better space for everyone.” - George Dei (2006)
