Have your say on Edinburgh’s 2050 Vision

The Edinburgh 2050 City Vision campaign invites everyone who lives in Edinburgh to share what matters most to them for the future of the city.

Open until Friday 14 December, all suggestions will be fed into creating a collective ‘City Vision’ which will shape what the Capital will be like in the year 2050. The City Vision will act as a blueprint for the future that every person, business and organisation can take inspiration from when planning for the next 32 years.

ECCI expertise will play a key role in ensuring the plans are smart and sustainable, providing an independent audit of the Council’s sustainability activity and delivering recommendations on how the authority can continue to improve its sustainability and climate change impact.

The City of Edinburgh Council launched Edinburgh’s City Vision for 2050 in Autumn 2016 - the first major conversation about the future of a city and a society in a generation, inviting Edinburgh to talk about its aspirations, plans, and concerns.

Professor Andy Kerr, ECCI Director, said: “ECCI is delighted to be working with the City of Edinburgh Council in its bid to help Edinburgh become a more connected, inspired, thriving, and fair city by 2050.

"We look forward to providing the best possible evidence and advice to the city to help it move to the vanguard of climate innovation.

“Delivering on climate targets isn’t just about cutting carbon – it’s the best way to create vibrant and liveable cities with strong economic growth."
