Cairns and Far North Environment Centre invites you to a seminar on

Sustainability Indicators:
taking sustainability from theory to practice

Sponsored by the Wet Tropics Management Authority, Blue print for the Bush and RRRC.

With many planning policies and strategies claiming Sustainability as a core objective, how to measure progress towards this goal becomes a vitally important question.  This seminar will include both speakers and an afternoon workshop, which will seek to create a set of aspirations and recommendations for the application of sustainability indicators within the FNQ region.
