Strategic Plans, Frameworks & REDS

Building a Stronger Future Together

We are committed to a strategic and forward-thinking approach to regional development. Our strategic plans, frameworks and Regional Economic Development Strategies (REDS) are the blueprints that guide our work, ensuring that we are focused on the right priorities and that we are making the most of our region’s unique opportunities.

Our “One Voice” Strategy

“One voice driving investment, inclusion and impact through region-led partnerships to sustain the Moreton Bay-Sunshine Coast-Noosa economic growth corridor to 2032 and beyond.”

Our Investment Framework

Our investment decisions follow four key principles, which are designed to ensure that we are investing in projects and initiatives that will deliver the greatest economic and social benefits for our region.

Regional Economic Development Strategy (REDS)

At RDAMBSC we also ensure we align all strategies and activities to the Regional Economic Development Strategy (REDS) for each of the three LGAs we cover.  Each REDS clearly sets out the economic vision for each LGA and outlines the priorities to achieve it. Developed with input from local businesses, industry, community organisations, and all levels of government, the REDS are regularly reviewed to stay relevant and responsive.
