[@OKau] Social progress indicator

[Cobi Alison Smith]

I don't know Heather - but I'm glad you raised it and I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has - Rosie could this count as a data/project request for your website? :)

Subject: [@OKau] Social progress indicator

Hi Everyone,
do you know of anyone who has looked at the social progress indicator for Australian data and jurisdictions?

I have been interested in this methodology since it was first launched and I understand Michael Porter was over spruiking it last year. Has anyone followed through and looked at the data sources that would be needed to compile it in Australia - especially at a state based or regional level?

Here are some good links if you want to know more:
