Human Ecology Forum for 10th October 2008:

Sustainability action in the Local Government sector

Kendal Hodgman (urban planner and PhD candidate; Murdoch Univeristy)

Many impediments to sustainability arise from a paradox: it is a simple proposition in principle yet extremely complex to apply. Thus, communicating about sustainability and its achievement is a primary challenge for governments. A Sustainability Analysis Framework has been implemented across thirty-eight New South Wales Government agencies, using a whole of government perspective and a discussion will be had around this topic.
