What we do

Vision 21 supports local solutions to global issues by working within Gloucestershire to change attitudes and behaviours to enable communities to meet their needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Vision 21 achieve this through project work, attending events with information displays, organising events for the community and businesses, reports, publications and an electronic newsletter 21 Today.

History

Vision 21 was established in 1994 as Gloucestershire’s response to Agenda 21, the international blueprint for global sustainability which was agreed at the UN’s 1992 Earth Summit. Vision 21’s innovative work on community consultation in drawing up Gloucestershire’s Local Agenda 21 has received wide acclaim. Since developing this manifesto, Vision 21 has concentrated on supporting and delivering sustainability projects in Gloucestershire which address global concerns at the local level.
