Future Melbourne Future Melbourne

Future Melbourne is a process for learning from the past and looking to the future to build a shared vision for the city.

Through Future Melbourne, the City of Melbourne and its partners (including you) will develop a plan to help us achieve our shared vision.

Everyone is invited to add to the conversation and debate, and join in activities to generate ideas and actions for Melbourne.

With your contributions we'll produce strategies that guide the city's development during the next decade and beyond. Find out more at the Future Melbourne Information centre.

Future Melbourne will explore all dimensions of urban life, including social, cultural, economic and environmental dimensions.

Through an intensive program of discussion, debate, consultation and analysis, Melbourne's community will contribute to the development of:

- a vision for the city in 2020 and beyond;
- the objectives and actions we must achieve to realise this vision.

Future Melbourne is led by the City of Melbourne and the University of Melbourne, with contributions from our project partners, including: the Australian Conservation Foundation; the Committee for Melbourne; the Property Council of Australia (VIC); and the Victorian Council for Social Service.

A Future Melbourne Reference Group, made up of prominent Melburnians, will act as a sounding board for our ideas as we go.

Futurelab

A new generation of young people are invited to help create the future of Melbourne. Futurelab will take place at Digital Harbour, Docklands, hosted by the City of Melbourne and Future Canvas on 17th May and 18th May from 10am - 4pm.

Young people with an interest in creating a vibrant and sustainable Melbourne are being sought to help shape the City of Melbourne's Future Melbourne plan for 2020 by participating in a two day workshop titled Futurelab.

Forty of the 80 participants required for the Futurelab workshop are still to be selected. Organisers are seeking enthusiastic young people who reflect the city's diverse community, creativity and who have an active interest in Melbourne's future.

Interested participants are asked to apply online via our website by 5pm, Thursday 8 May 2008.

The City of Melbourne Lord Mayor, John So, said he was inspired by the enthusiasm of young Melburnian's who were keen to participate in shaping the future of the city.

'We encourage interested participants to sign up and be a part of the Futurelab workshop. The City of Melbourne is a youthful city and values the feedback of young people on the draft Future Melbourne plan,' said the Lord Mayor.
