Abstract

This research report is based on a cooperation between the Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute (MSSI) and the Connected Cities Lab at the University of Melbourne. The goal of this report is to inform the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation (LMCF) on potential future themes and activities to support Melbourne transitioning toward a more sustainable and healthier city. To create an overview of Melbourne’s knowledge system in the context of sustainability and health, we identified key stakeholders and topics through desktop research and expert consultations in November and December 2018. As a result of this screening, we identified 90 organisations and 130 publicly available reports. Based on this data we identified main themes and opportunities which could help Melbourne transition toward a more sustainable and healthier city.
