Outcome 5.4 Social Inclusion
Outcome description
Brisbane is an inclusive city in which diversity is valued and all Brisbane residents, regardless of ability, background or circumstance are able to fully enjoy living, working or visiting.
Where we are now
Brisbane is known for its relaxed lifestyle, sense of community, friendly atmosphere and diverse communities. Our city faces a range of challenges in maintaining a strong sense of community including an ageing population, rapid growth, changing economic conditions, access to services and facilities and meeting the needs of a diverse community. Council shares the responsibility of social inclusion initiatives with partners including other levels of government, not-for-profit and business sectors and the community. Partnerships with these agencies strengthen Council's ability to respond to emerging needs as well as providing the means for Council to negotiate for improved services and programs.
By targeting services, building community capacity and resilience and supporting community groups and networks, this outcome contributes to the Brisbane Vision 2031 goals of an accessible, connected city and a friendly, safe city as well as to the broader goal of building an inclusive Brisbane.
Where we want to be
Brisbane's community will retain and express social values of friendship and compassion by helping others, welcoming new residents and visitors, addressing social issues such as homelessness, supporting our young people, seniors and people with a disability, welcoming multicultural diversity and valuing our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Council will be noted for its ability to broker partnerships between community, business and government to respond to social and economic challenges and support vulnerable communities.
Brisbane will possess strong community networks and resilient community groups that support those in need. Council will also have achieved a high degree of integration of its social inclusion strategies and initiatives, ensuring that its strategies, plans and programs facilitate access and inclusion.

Outcome 5.5 Community Sport, Recreation and Cultural Facilities
Outcome description
Brisbane residents have access to a broad range of well-managed, high-quality community facilities that provide safe and diverse sporting, recreational, social and cultural opportunities.
Where we are now
There are more than 600 community leases and licences in place over Council assets for a range of community purposes such as sport and recreation clubs, cultural and community services. These community facilities need to be maintained to a level that complies with legislative requirements.
Brisbane's expanding population places increasing pressure on the existing supply and maintenance of community facilities. Council faces the challenge of ensuring optimum use of existing community facilities while exploring ways to increase the provision of new and improved facilities to meet the needs of a changing and diverse community.
The Museum of Brisbane, Brisbane Powerhouse and SunPAC Brisbane are major cultural facilities that provide opportunities for diverse community participation in cultural activities.
Where we want to be
Planning for new and improved sport, recreation, cultural and community facilities and precincts, as an integral component of the city's infrastructure development, is crucial as localities undergo redevelopment and change.
A sound understanding of the current and future needs of the local community will ensure that facilities are planned, developed and managed to meet the needs of the community.
Facilities will be flexible in design and fit-for-purpose with asset and risk management plans and programs to maintain public safety, while responding to changing demands.
Developing partnerships with other levels of government, the not-for-profit sector, community-based enterprises and the private sector provide the opportunity to maximise Council's investment in community facilities.
Council will continue its investment in facilities for creative and cultural use. Well-defined funding agreements for major cultural facilities ensure the objectives of the Creative Brisbane Creative Economy 2013-22 strategy are progressed, so that a vibrant cultural life contributes to our creative economy.
