The Glasgow STEP UP team would like to invite you to a training session that will take place on Monday 20th April 2015. The session will introduce two key tools that can assist in different aspects of sustainable city planning:
- Stakeholder prioritisation matrix – an approach to stakeholder analysis that helps understand stakeholders’ priorities and improve engagement planning
- Problem/solution tree analysis – a tool that has been successfully applied by Glasgow City Council to identify and understand city challenges and new opportunities for sustainability initiatives and plans
The training is relevant for policy and project officers working on low carbon and sustainability planning and/or urban planning. Whilst the STEP UP project has been focussed on city level energy planning, the approaches and tools being shared can also be applied in other local authority contexts.
The session is free to attend but spaces are limited, so participants must register in advance.
