Adelaide has become the 4th Australian city to join the Global Destination Sustainability Index (GDS-Index).
Global Destination Sustainability Movement (GDS-Movement) is a pioneering, international change agency that acts to catalyse socio-economic and environmental transformation in cities and regions across the world. The GDS-Index, a trusted performance improvement programme, assesses and accelerates the progress of a destination’s regenerative journey.
