The NSW Urban Sustainability Support Alliance (USSA) project aims to help councils progress towards sustainability. It is a partnership approach made up of organisations who, over 3 years, will:
- deliver training and professional development sessions;
- establish and maintain communication networks;
- share experiences and lessons learnt by councils in the journey towards sustainability;
- coordinate mentoring programs; and
- develop tools and resources based on sound research and need.
The Alliance project has been assisted by the NSW Environmental Trust through its Urban Sustainability Program (USP), and coordinated by the Local Government and Shires Associations of NSW.
