Abstract	ANDI (Australian National Development Index Limited) is a registered Australian not-for-profit and public interest corporation. ANDI’s constitutional mission is to develop a comprehensive framework to measure national progress and wellbeing and promote the use and application of such frameworks, in government and the community, across Australia. Our approach is based on citizen engagement and democratic practice, partnerships, high quality research, and a central focus on equitable, sustainable wellbeing. ANDI and its predecessor body have worked in this field for over 25 years in Australia and internationally, and its partners include organisations in the community, local and state government, environment, human rights, indigenous and university sectors. Its key expertise includes community development, research and public policy and it has worked in an advisory or consultant capacity with governments, community organisations and research bodies in Australia and internationally. More information about ANDI’s work and organisation is provided in the ‘Notes’ section below and on ANDI's website: www.andi.org.au
