BSPC aims to increase mutual respect, dignity, unity, tolerance of cultural difference, and compassion for those in need and pursuit of the public good, thus, promoting a healthy multicultural environment in Australia.
Our Values
BSPC comprehends the importance of multiculturalism’s inevitability as it dilutes and dissipates the divisiveness of ignorance. It encourages dialogue, often between radically different cultures that have radically different perspectives. It is important because it unstiffens the insignificance of tolerance and embraces it with the genuine humanity of acceptance. It is a bridge between the divide of tolerance and acceptance.
BSPC aims for societies to encompass multiple ethnic, cultural, and racial groups which are involved in different values such as recognising differences, national solidity, and equality. Recognition of differences acknowledges and respects cultural identities and encourages mutual engagement across differences. National solidity involves teaching a sense of civic attachment to different groups and identities. BSPC believes equality is imperative throughout society, irrespective of their age groups, gender, religious orientation, etc.
