What is the Island Strategic Partnership?

The ISP is the Island Strategic Partnership - bringing together representatives from the public, business, voluntary and community sectors to deliver a Community Strategy for the Island.

Eco Island is the Sustainable Community Strategy for the Isle of Wight. Eco Island is based on the needs of the Island and what residents and business have told us, Eco Island is a roadmap to a sustainable future for the Island and sets the agenda for the ISP.  People

Eco Island will be supported by many plans and strategies including the 2008 Local Area Agreement (LAA) - a contract between the government and the Isle of Wight that identifys targets for change that will help to deliver Eco Island.

How is the ISP organised?

From April 2008, the ISP will be goverened by an ISP Board (like a board in a private company) comprosed of community leaders from the public, voluntary, community and private sectors on the Isle of Wight and in the South East.

The ISP has created four special partnerships that will work together to deliver Eco Island's four main themes:

  • A thriving Island
  • A healthy and supportive Island 
  • An inspiring Island
  • A safe and well kept island

Working in an open and accountable manner is central to the partnership. Meetings of the ISP Board are open to the public and details of activities are publicised in the local media and on this website in the meetings section.

The structure of the ISP, and the way that it works, is set out in the 2008 ISP Constitution, which can be found by clicking here.
