Sustainability health check for local government

Does your council have a clean sustainability bill of health?

Councils across Australia will be able to take a sustainability health check through a new diagnostic tool developed specifically for local government - the Sustainability Health Check.

The Sustainability Health Check was developed for the Local Government Managers Australia, NSW and the Office of Environment and Heritage by Sustainable Futures Australia.

The Sustainability Health Check is a management tool that can tell which aspects of your council's organisational systems and relationships are sustainable and which parts need work. It will help stimulate discussion across all facets of a council's operations about how sustainable practices and environmental principles can be applied or enhanced.

Visit Local Government Managers Australia NSW for a copy of the Sustainability Health Check manual or for information on upcoming workshops.
