What is the City Sustainability Partnership?
The purpose of the City Sustainability Partnership is to provide the city and its key stakeholders with strategic leadership on the sustainable development of Brighton & Hove.
The City Sustainability Partnership is independent, cross sector and strategic. It feeds into the family of partnerships on the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP), which in Brighton & Hove is called the 2020 Community Partnership.
Objectives
- to lead on the revision and implementation, monitoring and review of a One Planet Living Plan and a Climate Change Strategy for the city through the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP)
- to direct the performance of key city stakeholders against the environmental sustainability indicators in the new National Indicator set
- to direct work on the Environmental Sustainability indicators in the Local Area Agreement, e.g. the proposed indicator for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the local authority area
- to monitor the sustainability performance of the Sustainable Community Strategy and direct changes in the policies and practices of key stakeholders to improve this
- to locally champion the prioritiesof the national Sustainable Development Strategy: Securing the Future
- to develop good and innovative practice sharing and joint work in these areas across the community and voluntary, business and public service sectors in the city
