First List of Sustainable Development Indicators for monitoring and measuring the overall progress of Qu�bec society toward sustainable development The first list of sustainable development indicators provides a concrete picture of the concept of sustainable development. The list is based on work conducted and lessons learned in numerous countries (see documents below). Its results will reflect the impact not only of government policies and strategies but also of the activities of the population and all social stakeholders. This gives Qu�bec a way to measure its progress and see how it is doing compared to other countries. The list includes mechanisms allowing it to be enhanced in future.
The ultimate goal of Qu�bec�s sustainable development process is to meet society�s current needs while safeguarding the potential for greater well-being and a better quality of life in future generations. To meet those future needs, we must preserve and enrich the various forms of wealth (human capital, social capital, produced capital, financial capital and natural capital) from which we benefit today, and which we hope to pass on to future generations. We therefore speak of �bequeathed capital�.
The list of sustainable development indicators was the subject of public hearings before it was adopted by the Government.
This first list of sustainable development indicators completes the implementation of the Qu�bec Sustainable Development Plan tabled in 2004, which led to the adoption in 2006 of the Sustainable Development Act, and in 2007, of the Government Sustainable Development Strategy 2008-2013. In March 2009 the Strategy was completed when all departments and agencies adopted sustainable development plans setting out how they would contribute to achieving the governmental objectives.

The objective is to use the experiences of the public administrations in question in order to inspire and support development of the first list of sustainable development indicators for Qu�bec, which must be adopted by the government of Qu�bec by the end of 2008, in accordance with the Sustainable Development Act.
The indicators chosen will be used to measure and monitor sustainable development projects carried out in Qu�bec.
