Sustainable Communities 2008 - A Shared Strategy for the Future targets circa 400+ corporate-level strategists from both the public and private sectors, as well as community and voluntary (Third) sector organisations and those charged with the delivery of projects and programmes on the ground - providing an unique networking and knowledge sharing opportunity.
This event provides access to the latest information on strategy and innovation regarding the Government's key policy initiatives on the Sustainable Communities agenda and related issues, incorporating areas, such as: inspiring local leadership; community cohesion; community empowerment; capitalising on regeneration and investment in our communities; urban renewal; housing; planning; the impact of Climate Change on the adoption of new technologies driving energy efficiency/renewables; partnership delivery - LSPs, LAAs, MAAs; and finally, but perhaps most importantly, aligning strategy with performance and outcomes.
This is an opportunity to create new partnerships and alliances, develop working relationships, share knowledge and disseminate best practice.
For those in industry, this event provides an highly targeted but flexible environment in which to raise awareness regarding current and ongoing issues and where sales and marketing objectives can be realised.
