Visit to the One World Centre

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of visiting the Old World Centre to hear about the latest work being undertaken by the centre.   

The One World Centre works to promote global learning, dedicated to social justice and learning for sustainability. 

It was good to hear about the recent developments in supporting local schools to engage in global citizenship through active learning through the Global Learning Programme Scotland.

You can read more about the centre's work here.

Also yesterday, I participated in the latest meeting of the City Council's Local Economy Monitoring Group.    As well as a useful presentation on progress with the city's role as a UNESCO City of Design, there was a presentation on inward investment, an area where I feel more should be being done to ensure greater investment and jobs for the city.
