Cheers, Ziad Item Type: Appointment Start Date: Tuesday Nov 2, 2004, 11:00:00am (Atlantic Daylight Time) Duration: 2 Hours Place: World Trade and Convention Center (WTCC) @ 1800 Argyle The Nova Scotia chapter of the Institute of Public Administration of Canada (IPAC) is pleased to announce its second Luncheon presentation of the year: The Nova Scotia Sustainable Cities Initiative: Innovative Solutions for a Changing World Speakers are: Jim Stanley (SCI Provincial Co-Chair) Jim Ellsworth (SCI Federal Co-Chair) Information about the Initiative: Many issues affecting the sustainability of a community go beyond one department, one level of government, one budget source, or one interest group. To address the complex and inter-related problems, a broad-based approach is needed that involves many stakeholders and takes into account the inter-relationship between environmental, economic, social and cultural concerns. The Nova Scotia Sustainable Communities Initiative (SCI) is an innovative plan for governments to work in a new, more integrated way with one other, and with communities, to address sustainability issues. SCI is a partnership of more than 40 federal, provincial, municipal and First Nations organizations. Formed in late 1999, it is dedicated to supporting communities through a collaborative approach that integrates social, cultural, economic and environmental policies and programs. The Nova Scotia Sustainable Communities Initiative (SCI) has won an award for innovative management from IPAC. (more information available at: http://www.gov.ns.ca/news/details.asp?id=20040924005 ) Price: $15 IPAC members/ Students $20 Non-members There will be a lunch buffet and beverages provided. Please RSVP zhaddad@dal.ca as places are limited. ____________________________________________________________________________ Did a friend forward this to you? Join sust-mar yourself!
