Welcome to MCAN, Mullumbimby Community Action Network

Welcome to MCAN,  Mullumbimby Community Action Network

MCAN�was formed in response to the potential hijacking of our local economy by the globalised Woolworths entering our small town.� Our community was unable to stop them - however they afforded us a brilliant opportunity to become more aware of LOCALISATION, strengthening our economy sustainably, building solidarity and community resilience from the bottom up.�

Now, the fear of the Northern Rivers becoming�an industrialised gasfield is far worse than becoming a clone town. Petroleum Energy Licence�PEL445 (Arrow Energy) covers Byron Shire and beyond.� MCAN is supporting the LOCK THE GATE movement, which is not aligned with any political party.� It is a grassroots community alliance gathering strength to become the biggest social movement in Australia.
