Social-cultural sustainability in people-centred city governance

The Thematic group aims to identify social quantifiable sustainability indicators or measurement methodology for implementation of quantifiable measures of social sustainability in urban governance. Through the development of a digital decision support system prototype the project seeks to develop a tool to balance social sustainability with economic and environmental factors and provide a framework for cities to integrate social sustainability into local governance actions.

Leader: Arne Ingebrigtsen (City of Kristiansund)
