SUMMARY:'Live at COP27': free online learning for all
DESCRIPTION:Learning for a Sustainable Future: Live at COP27\, will run during the United Nations COP27 Climate Change Conference which takes place in Egypt between 6-18 November. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis 2-week MOOC ran last year in parallel with COP26 and attracted over 4\,000 learners from over 130 countries worldwide.

Using these ‘starting points’\, we will invite you to reflect on what you have heard\, watched and read\, and think about what these conversations and issues mean to you.  \n\n\n\nFind out more and sign up here.

SUMMARY:‘Climate Sisters: bringing women’s voices to the climate table’
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition: Greyfriars Charteris Centre\, Edinburgh\, EH8 9RR\n\n\n\nPlease note that the exhibition will not be open on Saturday 24 September due to a closed event. \n\n\n\nThe Climate Sisters are a group of thirteen women which formed in 2020 during a climate leadership course where\, through discussion and collaboration\, they each developed creative responses to aspects of climate justice and other sustainability issues they cared about. \n\n\n\nThrough the Women’s Environmental Network (WEN)\, the project gained support from the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust\, Care International and Action Aid UK. Additionally\, the University of Glasgow provided mentors to help the women to develop and create their ideas\, and the University of Edinburgh documented the project in conversation with young people from SCOREscotland through two films; bringing their collective stories into the ‘Learning for a Sustainable Future’ series of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). These collaborations enabled the women to develop their varied ideas\, make them a reality and share them widely. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis exhibition offers an opportunity to interact with each of the creative pieces produced by the Climate Sisters which include poetry\, music\, podcasts\, sculptures\, paintings\, jewellery\, filmmaking\, fashion and photography. \n\n\n\nIt is open\, free of charge\, 10am until 16:00 daily* from 22nd – 29th September at the Greyfriars Charteris Centre\, 138 The Pleasance\, Edinburgh\, EH8 9RR. \n\n\n\n\n    \n                \n    \n    \n\n\n\n\n*The exhibition will not be open on Saturday 24 September due to a closed event.

SUMMARY:Collaboration to scale up community action on sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Click here to book your place \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMany public sector bodies\, including local authorities\, have a mandate to support sustainability action and to facilitate community engagement in their regions. At the same time\, many community-led initiatives and intentional communities are developing creative regenerative practices. The aim of this workshop is to explore how we can scale up community efforts through collaboration\, especially between communities and local authorities but also involving other actors. We will draw on the results and tools developed in an Erasmus Plus project and pilot their use in Scotland and beyond. \n\n\n\nThe Ecovillage Transition in Action project \n\n\n\nWe are delighted to be able to offer this workshop from our Erasmus Plus-funded project Ecovillage Transition in Action (ETiA). We are coming towards the end of this innovative\, international project and we are looking forward to sharing the results of our hard work with different audiences and seeing how they might support your work. \n\n\n\nThe project developed through the partnership of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN)\, GEN Deutschland\, Hurdal Ecovillage\, ECOLISE and University of St Andrews\, Scotland. We comprised a group including facilitators\, trainers and academics. All of us had experience of living and working in a community\, and most of us had worked with or in local authorities\, NGOs and global organisations such as UNESCO. \n\n\n\nThe project researched the following questions: \n\n\n\nHow do we scale up regenerative practices that are developed and implemented in community-led initiatives such as Ecovillages and Transition Towns?How do we implement and embed local authority sustainability policies in communities?How do we support thriving collaborations to collectively achieve sustainability transitions beyond the community level?\n\n\n\nThe team produced a Handbook\, along with a Trainers’ handbook\, a Toolkit of resources and a Navigation tool to facilitate better collaboration between community led initiatives and local authorities and other partners and to enable them to co-create a better future.  In this workshop we will explore how to thrive and scale through collaboration\, using these tools and more. \n\n\n\nWorkshop detail \n\n\n\nThe meeting will take place online 18th August 12:00 to 13:30 in collaboration with Sustainable Scotland Network and Learning for Sustainability Scotland. \n\n\n\nClick here to book your place.
