REDC and Liveability REDC Purpose “To engage the region in a strategic approach to long term sustainability”

REDC and Liveability Sustainable People, Sustainable Industry Skills shortage Smart approach to business Attraction but not retention Need to know why – liveability implications Community and Social Infrastructure Audit

Measuring Liveability How has this been done? – INTERNATIONAL EXAMPLE Liveability Ranking (Part of Worldwide Cost of Living Survey) –40 indicators in 5 individually weighted categories: 1.Stability (25%) 2.Healthcare (20%) 3.Culture and Environment (25%) 4.Education (10%) 5.Infrastructure (20%) Cities rated from 0% to 100% (lower score is better) Melbourne ranked 1 st in 2002 and 2004

Measuring Liveability How has this been done? – NATIONAL EXAMPLE Australian Unity Wellbeing Index –Personal Wellbeing Index –National Wellbeing Index –Personal Wellbeing Index (how satisfied people are with their lives) – satisfaction with: Health; Personal relationships; Safety; Standard of living; Achievements in life; Community connection; Future security. –Measure of 0% to 100% (100% being completely satisfied) –Regularly measured and compared over time

Measuring Liveability How has it been done? – LOCAL EXAMPLE Cairns City Council 1.Affordability 2.Accessibility 3.Mobility 4.Diversity 5.Equity 6.Amenity 7.Well-Being 8.Good Leadership Range of measures under each category, rated over time as Improving or acceptable Unacceptable or getting worse Stable or Don’t know yet

Why Measure Liveability? Cost, time and risk implications… Evaluate policy outcomes Prioritise public expenditure Promotion of destinations Enhance urban design and planning Justify infrastructure requests Evaluation across social, economic and environmental aspirations
