This exhibition in Dunbar Library runs from 16th -28th August. It shows a DRAFT vision for 2025 and an action plan for getting us there. The action plan builds on local survey findings in which getting on for 1500 residents in the Dunbar area have been interviewed. These surveys have highlighted a strong desire to be able to source more locally produced food, live in more comfortable and energy efficient homes in neighbourhoods which are safe and attractive to walk and cycle around, for increased opportunities for local employment….and much more. The surveys have also highlighted the many barriers which currently prevent us all from doing many of these things.
The Action Plans show how we might start creating a more localised, vibrant and resilient local economy which can not only help us to cope with the major challenges which lie ahead but which, we believe, can create significant opportunites –for meaningful work, to develop new skills, to strengthen community networks and working to enhance the local environment.
Please take a look. What do you agree with? What do you disagree with? What have we missed out? Please add your comments and ideas using the post-it notes. Thank-you!
