Abstract:

Today sustainable development is an organic part of the community policies of the European Union
including regional policy. Sustainability is important not only for products and services, but also for
regions. Regional evaluation of sustainability is an emerging research field. The assessment of
regional social performance has not been elaborated yet. Social life cycle assessment, however,
would be suitable for this task. This study aims to utilise Social Life Cycle Assessment and indicators
to assess regional sustainability. To test the assessment system, this study analyses the social
performance of Northern Hungary.
