Summary Report
When Glasgow was announced as the location for COP26 we realised that one of the most important things we could do, as local civil society, was to support international civil society impact at COP, particularly from global south countries and other marginalised communities, by providing facilities, venues, accommodation, welcome rest and refreshment for international campaigners and activists. We wanted to do this while supporting and building the local climate movement, drawing more people and organisations in and providing opportunities for everyone to connect with COP and leave an enduring legacy.
As important as what we did was how we did it, as our intention was to provide that support to international civil society coming to COP, while also building up Scotland’s and Glasgow’s own capacity to be involved and maximise the potential for legacy.

Full Project Report and Playbook
This report has been written to give access to the full information about the work that the SCCS COP26 Project Team undertook for COP26. This is the long-form ‘how we did it’ report with links to all key documents.
This report is intended to be useful to those who wish a more detailed overview of the work we did: SCCS members, funders, those who were involved, and those who may wish to do similar things in future, and so has links to further reports and template documents, and ways of working that could be useful for feeding into further projects related to COP in future as well as legacy work.
Many useful documents we worked on are linked in this report and also in an archive Google Drive here.
The 4 page Summary Report can be viewed here and an independent Evaluation here.

Project Archive
We hope that the work we put in over the past two years is useful to those who come after us, especially at COPs, but also for those looking to mobilise in their own communities wherever they are. To help with this we have saved all the reports and the documents in an archive. Feel free to borrow from these – use them as please: if you need a safeguarding policy use ours as a template, if you need a platform for promoting community venues then use ours as a template….
We hope this information is useful to you and if you would like to get in touch please contact [email protected]
