There are numerous benefits resulting from participation
in the LivCom Awards including:
- The compilation of the Initial Report is a
self-audit process that can provide the basis for a
future plan to create a liveable community.
- During the Finals you will be able to observe
Presentations that contain examples of International
Best Practice applied to challenges similar to those
facing your City.
- You will be able to showcase your City’s Best
Practice on an international stage and influence
accepted International Best Practice.
- Civic pride will be enhanced by being with ‘the
leading communities in the world’.
- Innovation is encouraged.
- Meeting with delegates from communities from other
countries and cultures that are
facing similar challenges to those faced by your
community leads to the formation of partnerships to
exchange information and experiences, and the arranging
of exchange technical visits on an ongoing basis.
- These partnerships can extend to subjects beyond
Environmental Issues.
- The exchange of information and experiences can
produce accelerated technical benefits and financial
savings year on year. The investment in time and finance
needed to participate in the
Awards is not large and can be exceeded by many times by
the ongoing benefits.

and Inward Capital Investment.

from over 50 countries with similar environmentally
