Cardinia Compass Sustainability Indicators

In collaboration with a group of interested community members under the name of the Cardinia Compass group, the Shire of Cardinia together with Swinburne's Centre for Regional Development has developed a suite of sustainability indicators.. The project has produced an initial report outlining the state of Cardinia in the North, (natural environment), South (social environment), East (economy) and West (wellbeing of individuals) domains. This process presented an opportunity to inform both Council and the community about the state of their community and to link this work to the state wide Victorian Community Indicators project. It is also an opportunity to connect community members with their role in achieving sustainability, since these indicators are not performance measures for council, but rather broad trends in community outcomes.
