The Constitution of PCCA articulates its commitment to “upholding the values of democracy, freedom, justice and respecting human rights” and its aims and objectives can be distilled down to the following four key concepts: 1. advocating in the best interests of the Polish diaspora in Australia, 2. co-ordinating Polish priorities, 3. disseminating and exchanging information, and 4. developing community relations.
