Citywide Policies

The Greens' vision for Brisbane covers a range of important issues for our city, from housing to transport to sustainable development and urban greening.

But our number 1 priority - the core value that underpins all of our work - is that residents should have more direct and meaningful control over the future of our local communities and the wider metropolis.

Our approach to local governance is grounded in grassroots participatory democracy - the principle that everyone who is affected by a decision or cares about an issue should get a meaningful say on the matter, with transparent access to relevant information, and without giving disproportionate weight to the views of property developers, wealthy elites or multinational corporations.
