Off the Waiting List, a report compiled by the Australian Institute for Social Research, University of Adelaide, states it is estimated that approximately 90,000 extra people will need to be accommodated in South Australia by 2014, and a further 360,000 by 2050, creating further demand for land, housing, transport and services. http://www.sapo.org.au/pub/pub9483.html DATE: Tuesday, 25 September 2007 SUMMARY: Despite the substantial amount of research focusing on social inclusion and exclusion, both in Australia and internationally, there are considerable gaps in the literature that limit its utility for policy development purposes.these gaps are addressed by the `Measuring social inclusion and exclusion in Northern Adelaide' Project. This has involved the development of a model that provides a range of indicators of social inclusion and exclusion that enables the measurement of change over time and promotes an increased understanding of the influence of social capital on social inclusion and exclusion. The measures developed are designed to be of use to Government in its planning and implementation of social inclusion initiatives in Northern Adelaide, and more broadly, to inform social inclusion policy development, implementation and evaluation. http://www.sapo.org.au/pub/pub7603.html DATE: Friday, 12 January 2007 SUMMARY: Social welfare performance indicators do not consider the equity implications of gross and net public expenditure. That is,governments may spend money in a given area to achieve social outcomes but also tax the same community in ways which moderate the effectiveness of social programs. This paper reports on a project that aims to deploy geographical information systems (GIS) to investigate these processes. The equity implications of gross and net public expenditure are considered in a discussion of the development of a process to map the impact of public expenditure on social exclusion. http://www.sapo.org.au/pub/pub5963.html DATE: Tuesday, 18 July 2006 SUMMARY: This report outlines the results of an evaluation of the South Australian Government's Energy Efficiency Program for Low Income Households.
