Terms of Reference - 50 KB SFG Masterclass - Helping you Deliver NI 185 & 186 - 11 December 08 On 11 December the Sustainable Futures Group South East (The Region's Champion Body for Sustainable Development) held a masterclass on strategic leadership on sustainability at a local level. Jonathon Porritt said the "masterclass has been a great way of sharing ideas and enabling progress. Success is clearly about buy-in at the top. I heard many encouraging and positive examples, but each Local Authority across the South East needs to stick its neck out and be a leader, or we all lose out as global citizens." Presentations were given by: Jonathon Porritt, Director of Forum for the Future and Chairman of the UK Sustainable Development Commission Andy Walford, Audit Commission Thurstan Crockett, Brighton and Hove Council Mike Bridgeman, Hampshire County Council Chris Cousins, Oxfordshire County Council Joe Baker, London Borough of Barking and Dagenham Trevor Watson, Lewes District Council; and Mary Anderson, CAG Consultants.
