ECCI residents SSN launch new strategy as part of Scotland's Climate Week.
The Sustainable Scotland Network (SSN), co-delivered by ECCI, is Scotland's largest network of public sector sustainability professionals. It helps Scotland's councils, health services, universities and other public bodies work together on ambitious, evidence-based climate action and adaptation.
SSN's new strategy sets the aims and themes for supporting member action under three key programmes:
- Collaborating to help create Net Zero Places
- Influencing towards Net Zero Indirect Emissions
- Networking to achieve Net Zero Public Sector Organisations
Each programme will engage members and leaders in understanding the priority challenges and co-designing resources to facilitate public sector action on the climate emergency while supporting a resilient recovery from the global COVID-19 pandemic.
As part of a full agenda The Scottish Government will provide an update on latest climate policy developments and green recovery plans and members will also hear about climate leadership initiatives. Highland Council will share learning from efforts to align functions and service delivery with national climate targets and Glasgow City Council will whet appetites for the countdown to COP26 taking place 1-12 November 2021.
