Funded Activity Summary

Re-imagining the Australian suburb - Ecological Sustainability and Urban Development. The purpose of this research project is to examine the contribution that Aurora, a new master- planned community in Melbourne, can make to the ecological sustainability of housing developments on the urban fringe. VicUrban, the Victorian Government land development agency responsible for the Aurora project, initiated the study to facilitate a process of evaluation, reflection and continuous improvement in the way that it implements sustainability in its strategic planning and everyday operations. The expected outcome is a framework for planning and implementing ecological sustainability in urban development, including organizational processes and sustainability indicators.
