What Works Scotland research associate Dr Claire Bynner presented the keynote address at Stronger Communities, the Perth and Kinross Community Planning Conference, this week.
The conference brought together people from across Perth and Kinross with the aim of creating space for attendees to:
- find out more about the updated Community Plan and progress over the last year
- explore how they could strengthen collaborative working with communities
- discover more about the future focus for each locality and how they can work together to deliver Local Action Plans
Claire’s presentation was entitled Strengthening Communities: Place and participation.
