The conference has been designed to assist local government staff to identify, plan and implement best practice sustainable development solutions and to showcase leading edge examples of outstanding environmental initiatives by Australian local governments. This will be a prestigious and popular event which will become an annual draw-card for members of local government responsible for sustainability policy issues. Currently it is the only national local government environmental policy conference.
Themes and Objectives:
- integrating sustainable development into planning strategies measuring progress towards sustainable development outcomes building sustainability into operational activities positioning local government in the leadership role for sustainable development
- harnessing community energies to achieve environmental goals.
Best practice case studies in:
- water management
- waste minimisation and recycling
- greenhouse emissions control
- the built environment, preservation and enhancement of biodiversity
The conference will seek to provide a practical level of information transfer rather than be academically based.
The prestigious national Local Sustainability Leaders Awards 2006 hosted by Environs, will also be held in conjunction with the conference and exhibition.
