Policies for a Green Melbourne

The Greens’ policies for Melbourne City Council are based around 5 key ideas:

- Making Melbourne Australia’s most sustainable capital city. We will use Council’s resources to meet the challenges of a climate change emergency.

- Helping to create a world-class public transport system which can move people without petrol.

- Social justice: Council should prioritise the social and economic needs of the community, and invest more in services (like childcare).

- A creative Melbourne: we must continue to support our vibrant cultural and social life, especially our small bars and creative businesses.

- Running a democratic, transparent and accountable Council.

The Melbourne City Greens will be releasing our full policies continuously in the lead up to November’s Melbourne City Council elections. SIGN UP IN THE ‘STAY INFORMED’ SPACE ON THE FRONT PAGE to receive our policies as they’re announced, or email us with any questions.

Our policies will be consistent with the state and federal policies of The Greens, and are specifically endorsed by the party for local government. The Greens are committed to electoral honesty and transparency, and therefore to the full disclosure of all of its policies before elections.

The policies of the Victorian Greens (state) are available here in full.

The policies of the Australian Greens (federal) are available here in full.
