No community, here or overseas, wants to be faced with problems which
lead to them becoming caught in a cycle of degradation and poverty, with
a consequent lack of community pride in their area, poor environmental
quality and health, high crime and unemployment levels, and multiple inequalities. Our aim is to create sustainable communities - places where people want
to live and work, now and in the future.
From global to local we aim to improve the lives of people in deprived
communities and socially excluded groups who experience poor quality of
life, including poor local environmental quality and poor access to services
such as education, healthcare and transport. This page provides a gateway
to further information on what the Government is doing to achieve sustainable
communities. For further information on Government policy areas that contribute to creating sustainable
communities see the links below.
