The Sunshine Coast Community Strategy 2019-2041 provides a plan for our shared goal of a strong community through partnership, collaboration, advocacy and direct action.
The strategy provides a long-term framework for how council and our community will work together through to 2041. The strategy has two parts:
- The Sunshine Coast Community Strategy[3152KB] sets a vision, five outcomes areas, guiding principles and methods for how the goal of a strong community will be achieved.
- The Sunshine Coast Community Strategy Action Plan 2019-2024[1695KB] outlines the key priorities to achieve our five desired outcomes. It also provides a clear approach to regular measuring and reporting.
