SUMMARY:Rethinking Scotland's National Outcomes Framework
DESCRIPTION:(Hybrid event – online or in-person at the University of Strathclyde\, Glasgow) \n\n\n\nJoin Scotland’s International Development Alliance\, the University of Strathclyde\, the SDG Network Scotland and other partners including Learning for Sustainability Scotland\, at a hybrid discussion on Monday 30 March\, 09:30–12:30 to share your views on reforming and renewing Scotland’s National Performance Framework. \n\n\n\nWhat is this event about?\n\n\n    \n                \n    \n    \n\n\nScotland’s National Performance Framework is being redesigned. We have a chance to influence what comes next – and make sure the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are at the heart of how Scotland measures success. \n\n\n\nThe Deputy First Minister has set out proposals for six high-level National Outcomes\, cross-cutting perspectives (or “lenses”)\, and a stronger focus on “ways of working” and implementation. \n\n\n\nThe NPF could be a vital tool for policy coherence\, helping Scotland deliver on the SDGs and align public and private action. Does the current proposal get us there? What is missing\, and what would make implementation real rather than rhetorical? \n\n\n\nWe will use the Government’s own prompts as a starting point\, including how your work connects to the proposed outcomes\, how cross-cutting perspectives should be reflected\, and what stronger accountability\, transparency and culture change could look like in practice. \n\n\n\nIf you care about how Scotland sets direction\, measures what matters\, and makes long-term decisions\, please come along – either in-person or online –  and add your voice. \n\n\n\nClick here to find out more and book your place.

SUMMARY:Educating for a Healthy Planet and People: Strengthening Partnerships on the Road to COP30
DESCRIPTION:Join us and colleagues from the Planetary Health Alliance as we explore the role of Planetary Health education in preparing societies for the urgent transitions demanded by the climate crisis; aligning with COP30’s agenda\, the broader UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\, and building upon the Planetary Health Educational Framework\, developed by the Planetary Health Alliance. \n\n\n    \n                    \n                \n    \n    \n\n\nAs humanity faces converging crises—from climate change and biodiversity loss to pandemics and food insecurity—it is increasingly clear that the health of people is inseparable from the health of the planet. Planetary Health offers an integrated\, transdisciplinary framework that addresses these interconnected challenges by placing human well-being within the context of Earth’s natural systems.While COP30 (to be held in Belém\, Brazil in 2025) represents a critical political moment to advance climate action globally\, education remains a powerful yet under-utilised lever for long-term transformation. Embedding Planetary Health into education systems—from primary schools to professional training—can empower citizens\, leaders\, and communities with the knowledge\, values\, and skills necessary to co-create a sustainable and equitable future. \n\n\n\nClick here for full details and to reserve your FREE place. Who is the event for?\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n● Educators\, researchers\, and students● Policymakers in all related areas● Youth and student organizations● Civil society and environmental NGOs● Indigenous leaders and traditional knowledge holders● International organizations (e.g.\, WHO\, UNESCO\, UNEP) \n\n\n\nWhat are the expected outcomes?\n\n\n\n● A shared understanding of the importance of Planetary Health education for climate action.● A set of recommendations to feed into the official COP30 processes and legacy initiatives.● Strengthened networks among educators\, institutions\, and civil society committed to transforming education for a healthy planet.● A public-facing communiqué or declaration on Planetary Health Education for COP30. \n\n\n\nClick here for full details and to reserve your FREE place. Supporting partners and organisations:\n\n\n\nPlanetary Health AllianceUniversity of São PauloPlanetary Health Brazil NetworkScotland’s United Nations University recognised Regional Centre of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development – Learning for Sustainability Scotland

SUMMARY:Shaping the future: discussing the Wellbeing and Sustainable Development (Scotland) Bill
DESCRIPTION:“The Scottish Government recognises the duty to protect the interests of future generations. We also recognise that our ability to have a thriving society and economy is derived from the health of the planet.  \n\n\n\nContinually improving Scotland’s National Outcomes is one of the ways we can achieve these aims and ensure that we are able to deliver long-term and sustainable policy and delivery approaches. To do this\, we need responses from people and organisations across Scotland.” \n\n\n\nJoin us and colleagues from Scottish Government as we explore and shape a response to the consultation on the proposed Wellbeing and Sustainable Development (Scotland) Bill.  \n\n\n\nThis ‘aims to improve decision making and the implementation of the National Performance Framework to ensure that all policy and delivery accounts for wellbeing and sustainable development.’ \n\n\n\nWe look forward to welcoming you to this timely and useful discussion. This report from the Scottish Leaders’ Forum may also be of interest in preparing for this event. \n\n\n\nBook your place here.
