EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: PROJECT-BASED SUSTAINABLE

DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVE (SDI) APPROACH

AUGUST 2007

A Sustainable Development Initiative (SDI) is broadly defined as an over-arching socioeconomic development and environmental rehabilitation initiative that is enabled and supported by large-scale property development.

The SDI approach is a strategy to give practical effect to legislation, policy, protocols and agendas aimed at promoting sustainable development. An SDI is always undertaken in partnership with local communities and others that can help to promote sustainable development in a manner consistent with government policy.

Government and others support many programs and projects which promote publicprivate-community partnerships and aim to engage a wide spectrum of role players in the planning and development process. The SDI approach responds to the responsibility of private sector investors in property development to help enhance and give effect to such programs and projects.
