The Alberta government is a leader in the use of indicators. In fact, Alberta was the first provincial government in the country to adopt publicly reported indicators to track progress on a number of important social, economic and environmental goals. Other important indicator initiatives in Alberta include the Pembina Institute's Alberta Genuine Progress Indicator, Sustainable Calgary's State of Our City reports and the Canadian Index of Wellbeing.
This report reviews and compares these important indicator frameworks and identifies future directions for indicator developments in Alberta. A comparison of the initiatives helps inform the final chapter of the report, which describes future directions for indicator work in Alberta.
