The Dashboard of Sustainability is a free-of-charge, non-commercial software package configured to convey the complex relationships among economic, social, and environmental issues.[1] The software is designed to help developing countries achieve the Millennium Development Goals and work towards sustainable development. [2] This software package has had a variety of representations. In 2002, Dashboard of Sustainability researchers Jochen Jesinghaus and Peter Hardi presented the Dashboard of Sustainability at the Jonannesburg Summit.[3] In 2004, the Retailer's Bakery Association in Laurel, Maryland, United States considered the Dashboard of Sustainability when evaluating its twenty five affiliate groups for leadership, administrative structure, membership involvement, and member services.[4] In January 2006, the Millennium Project utilized the Dashboard of Sustainability to conclude in their State of the Future report that global prospects for improving the overall health, wealth, and sustainability of humanity are improving, but slowly.[5] In February 2006, it was proposed that the Dashboard of Sustainability be utilized to combine and represent two or more of the following five frameworks presently used for developing sustainability indicators: domain-based, goal-based, issue-based, sectoral, and causal frameworks.[6]
