Integrated Wellbeing Appraisal
An “Integrated Wellbeing Appraisal”, or IWBA, considers how plans and programmes the Welsh Government sponsor promote wellbeing across Wales. The methodology and guidance is set out in the Welsh Transport Appraisal Guidance (WelTAG), and IWBA’s have now replaced the formerly existing Integrated Assessment Report, with updates to the guidance to align with the Welsh Transport Strategy.
On policies and plans specifically focussed on Transport, the IWBA has to address four key questions, based on the four ambitions within the Welsh Transport Strategy:
- How will the programme or project benefit people and communities?
- How will it benefit the environment?
- How will it benefit places and the economy?
- How will it benefit culture and the Welsh language?
This rigorous, structured approach uses “quantitative and qualitative” measures to help us understand the specific impacts that our draft RTP will have on well-being for residents across CCR.
We’ve produced a IWBA for our draft RTP for CCR. You’ll be able to explore the IWBA using the functions below, and understand how our plan will impact you in greater detail.
