Community members need to envision and communicate what they want their community to be like in the near and distant future. Of course, creating goals for a community is a lengthy and arduous process that involves compromise and, ideally, consensus. The following exercises will help communities start the process; however, other activities will be needed to complete the task of creating sustainability goals.
The exercises to create community sustainability goals are:
- Meeting Your Neighbors
- Building Consensus - www.esdtoolkit.org/community_goals/consensus.html
- Seeing Your Community Through a Sustainability Lens - www.esdtoolkit.org/community_goals/sust_lens.html
- Envisioning a Sustainable Future
- Society Strips - Every girl and boy should receive education that teaches the knowledge, perspectives, values, issues, and skills for sustainable living in the community
