LOCAL GOVERNMENT Are you looking for project management that is focused on real sustainability outcomes? In the past, many environment projects implemented by local government were grant funded and short-term. These projects were discrete with desired outcomes easily achievable within an agreed timeframe. With the urgency of climate change and resulting changes to legislation and regulatory requirements, councils have found themselves shouldering much greater responsibility for local sustainability. Solutions are complex, requiring a multi-disciplinary implementation framework, and take into account not just environmental impacts but social and economic aspects as well. Living Schools can assist local government to integrate sustainability through: · Hands-on community workshops on all aspects of sustainable living · Presentations, forums and photography exhibitions · Meaningful community engagement and consultation · Capacity building to integrate sustainability into operations and planning · Development of community gardens and demonstration sites · Implementation of community based action programs · Development of resource kits and tools for educators For details read our services for local government brochure, or to read comments from past participants of our courses click here.
