IMPACT

The Action Plan provides the Malmsbury community with a practical pathway to ramp up their Climate Response. Perhaps more important than the Plan itself, the process of developing the Plan established new connections in the community that will improve resilience and collaboration, even outside the agreed actions.

Based on the success of this pilot Macedon Ranges Shire Council is seeking to develop future plans with other communities within its municipality.
