MRA uses videos, publications, music, speakers and stage productions. MRA is open to all and operates with a minimum of structured organisation. Co-ordination and planning are maintained through extensive consultations and communications, at national and international levels. MRA links in with other groups and networks. A core of fully-available volunteer workers helps integrate initiatives and provides support.
Legal bodies exist in many countries to administer funds and property.
Each initiative, each need, is approached with an expectation of sharing resources and with the faith that people acting with unselfish motives will find support from unexpected sources. MRA grew out of the Oxford Group which started among Oxford University students in the late 1920s. Today, at the threshold of the new millennium, MRA is an active network of people from many cultures and creeds across the generations, engaged in the ever-needed process of 'remaking the world'.
