Who we work with

Our collaborations include:

- Shaping and learning from research led by Climatexchange
- Developing community engagement tools with the Scottish Communities Climate Action Network and Pas
- Running place based partnership projects with the Edinburgh Sustainable Development Partnership and the Galloway and Southern Ayrshire Biosphere partnership
- Sharing adaptation knowledge and ideas with international partners including the International Institute for Environment and Development, Australia’s National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility and Climate Ireland.
