LandScale assessment framework (version 1.0)
Last updated: October 2021
The LandScale assessment framework—developed through two years of field testing and extensive consultation—provides a common language for assessing landscape sustainability. The most up-to-date version (1.1) is available in the LandScale assessment framework section.
The version below, along with the translated copies, does not reflect the updated indicator and metric categorizations introduced in the 2025 refresh. However, it can be cross-referenced with version 1.1.
