Towards intergenerational fairness in local government: An intergenerational impact assessment for local councils
- How can we make decisions that better protect the long term?
- IF’s latest report outlines how intergenerational impact assessments can be introduced into local government.
- Charlie Hicks, former elected Champion for Future Generations and councillor for Oxfordshire County Council, provides the foreword to the report.
- IF presents a temporal intergenerational impact assessment tool that combines democratic principles and rights-based principles.
- The tool was tested via a pilot intergenerational impact assessment of Oxfordshire County Council’s Central Oxford Travel Plan following agreement with the county council, in order to demonstrate that using an intergenerational lens can bring long-term thinking into local government decision-making.
