Join Culture for Climate Scotland at North Edinburgh Arts to understand how cultural activities can contribute to creating sustainable and regenerative communities.

Date and time: 11am – 3pm, Thu 27 November 2025
Location: North Edinburgh Arts, 12C MacMillan Square, EH4 4AB

The morning session will be an introduction to pre-existing place-based work in Scotland. Lesley-Anne Rose will share her reflections on the importance of culture in place planning and community work, Pippa Cook will introduce the Place Standard Tool and Rebecca Dillon-Robinson will outline the policies supporting local living and 20-minute neighbourhoods in Scotland.

At 12pm, we’ll break for a shared lunch of soup and sandwiches.

The afternoon session will involve creative mapping of Granton and the places where participants live and/or work. This is an opportunity for participants to reflect on how culture can support sustainable development or regeneration in their communities. They’ll end the afternoon by developing a toolkit incorporating culture into placemaking.
