Sustainability Accord

Sustainability Accord is a partnership between the Victorian Government and Victorian Councils to foster consistent development of environment and sustainability policies and programs.

East Gippsland Shire Council provided formal commitment to the Accord via a letter to the minister for
Environment in April 2006 and was the first Gippsland Council to commit to the Accord.

A Local Environmental Sustainability Priority Statement was developed in June 2007.

Sustainability Fund

Sustainability Fund is designed to support projects that foster sustainable resource use and have economic and social benefits for Victorians.

East Gippsland Shire Council was successful in Round Two by receiving funding to develop an environmental strategy and employ a Sustainability Officer for a 12 month period.
