Understanding Sustainability for Councillors
This workshop has been designed to provide councillors and senior staff with skills and knowledge to clarify the legislative and ethical requirements relating to Ecologically Sustainable Development.
Participants will work interactively to identify how councils can improve their current level of activity in this area and understand the sustainability tools available to councils, using the quadruple bottom line to consider social, economic and environmental sustainability, within a good governance framework. The workshop will be participatory with case studies used to illustrate examples of good sustainability practice occurring in Local Government.
