Sustainable Sydney 2030–2050 Continuing the Vision
For a city that is green, global and connected.

Transforming our city
Our vision is for a sustainable future where everyone does their part to respond to the climate emergency.
We are a leader in our region for just and sustainable growth, creativity and innovation. Our city has a thriving 24-hour economy and opportunities for all.
Social, business, cultural and physical connections in our city help us reach our potential, adapt to change and withstand adversity.
A vision from the heart of our community
We engaged our communities on their vision for Sydney in 2050 over several years. Activities included surveys, pop-up events and community workshops with First Peoples of Australia, small businesses and cultural and nightlife sectors. We also held consultations with children and young people and a citizens jury.
