The primary purpose of the CAZ collective is to provide a safe space for the people of Cork to communicate, teach, learn and grow. The space is intended to act as a convergence point for grassroots and community groups and progressive organisations and alliances.
Our primary goal is to raise awareness of community, to encourage and foster collaboration between groups and to provide people with skills (or at least the space to acquire those skills) to build and strengthen community. We will house and foster and economy based on connections between people, a true community that support all involved. All voices will be heard, all talents will be used and traded, and information will be shared.
The CAZ was set up by interested individuals and decisions will be made based on the input of those who make use of the space or who otherwise contribute to the running of the centre. The CAZ core group are not 'service providers', everyone using the space is expected to contribute appropriately according to their abilities, capabilities and availability.
The CAZ community will not accept racist, sexist, ageist, homophobic or otherwise hateful actions or behaviour.
