Summary

Guidance issued by the government in 2000 on Preparing Community Strategies highlighted the role of community strategies in addressing equalities and the needs of interest groups, as well as locality based communities.

Since 2000, there have been a number of important policy developments that have raised the issue of equalities within the local government arena. Key drivers of this agenda include a raft of new legislation, the enhanced Corporate Performance Assessment (CPA) as well as the Equalities Standard.

This report draws upon evidence from the national evaluation of community strategies to consider how equality and diversity are addressed within community strategies in a selection of local authorities between 2003 and 2007.
