When we moved in 5 months ago we had a D rating, but with the help of a few lovely engineers, Stirling Council and Scottish government grants/loans, we now have an A. Just in time for winter too ❄️🌱🫶

Lovely article that gives a bit of context to our Compost Co-Lab Project. Thank you Samar 🌱🫶.

@RGS_IBG @segambell @RiaDunkley @MissSJHamilton1 @elliotdcfisher Now we’re in to our panel discussion, with the first question being raised around the value of participatory mapping, and if that’s in the process or product

@RGS_IBG @segambell @RiaDunkley @MissSJHamilton1 Last but not least, it’s @elliotdcfisher talking to us about participatory mapping as a tool to reveal conflicting perceptions of fire drivers in Madagascar. A great use of imagery here

@RGS_IBG @segambell @RiaDunkley @MissSJHamilton1 It’s time for the room to explore the term “coproduction” with Isabella Hawkes

@RGS_IBG @segambell @RiaDunkley Third, it’s our very own @MissSJHamilton1 discussing her work with Glasgow Science Centre and “Mission oriented messaging to support the conceptualisation of climate science and participatory mapping

Second, we’ve Aideen Foley, exploring “Paper or Pixels? WebGIS vs Analogue Approaches to Participatory Mapping

So it begins. First up, we have @AmaliaArgelich, with her talk, “How to map vulnerability in an empowering way? A climate gentrification index

Interested in participatory mapping? At #RGSIBG24? . Come along to our session today at 11:10am in Royal School of Mines rm G41, to find out more about various applications throughout the world, and unpack both opportunities and challenges encountered.
