Key Outcomes for the City of Newcastle

The goal with your solution is to create a platform that encourages

citizens to engage with or contribute to, the following goals from the City
of Newcastle’s Community Strategic Plan

• 2.1 Greater efficiency in the use of resources

• 2.2 Our unique natural environment is maintained, enhanced and
connected
• 2.3 Environment and climate change risks and impacts are understood
and managed
• 3.1 Public places that provide for diverse activity and strengthen our
social connections
• 3.2 Culture, heritage and place are valued, shared and celebrated
• 3.3 Safe and activated places that are used by people day and night
Example

For example, a potential solution for “3.3 Safe and activated places that
are used by people day and night” while even supporting the other
outcomes, might have a platform that creates a treasure map that
provides rewards for visiting a number of key locations around Newcastle.

This might be facilitated by QR codes set up on each of these locations

and partnerships set up with local businesses. These businesses may look
to provide rewards to these citizen and in turn, gaining promotion.
