Sustainable development strategy : Dingli 2020

Abstract

The birth of this Strategy derives from my ambition to provide the Dingli Local Council with a robust framework on which to base its decision-making and to guarantee the residents that no decisions will be taken without measuring their impact on sustainable development. Acts of decision-making without any consideration of their long-term impact must be made a thing of the past, both in Dingli and in other Local Councils. Dingli’s first Sustainable Development Strategy is intended to perform as an inspiring vision for the next ten years. Hence, the year 2020 in the sub-title. Over the next ten years this Strategy will prove indispensible to the Dingli Local Council in its goal to protect the sustainability of its territorial borders and ensure social and economic growth in line with a string environmental sensibility. The Strategy will act as a robust forceful guideline decree that aids us in meeting both the current and future needs of the community whilst safeguarding its social, economic, and environmental infrastructure for future generations.
