About this event

Glasgow City Council and the University of Glasgow’s Centre for Sustainable Solutions, together with Policy Scotland, are partnering on a series of three Green Recovery Dialogues intended to progress a just and sustainable recovery from COVID-19.

The Dialogues, taking place in November/December 2020, will enable better-informed partnership working for achieving the City’s and the University’s ambitious Carbon Neutrality (Net Zero) targets of 2030. You can find more information about the webinar series here

The third of this dialogue series, facilitated by Professor Deirdre Shaw (University of Glasgow) and Duncan Booker (Glasgow City Council), focuses on the following themes:

  • Caring Economy: Transformation to a ‘caring economy’ that is inclusive, localised and just, with wellbeing at its heart.
  • Doing Consumption Differently: Rethinking consumption to advance transformation of current approaches and expand conversations around circular and digital solutions.

More details about this third dialogue session are available here (password: GRD2020).

Spaces are free but limited, so please register via this eventbrite page.

The zoom link to access this event will be sent to registered delegates shortly before the event.
