Join us for the A New Scotland? book launch where we’ll hear from the editor Gregor Gall along with contributors Regina Serpa and Michael Keating.
Inequality and unfairness still stalk Scotland after more than twenty years of devolution. Having done little to shield against austerity, Brexit and an increasingly right-wing Westminster agenda, calls for further constitutional reform to solve pressing political, economic and social problems grow ever louder. The debate over further devolution or independence continues to split the population. In A New Scotland, leading activists and academics lay out their blueprints for radical reform, showing how society can be transformed by embedding values of democracy, social justice and environmental sustainability into a coherent set of policy ideas.
At Lighthouse we’re constantly seeking out those books that open new doors and make new connections for people. As important as it is to reckon with history or to diagnose the issues of today, we really need more books and spaces that create opportunities for expansive conversations around what is possible and that foster bold visions of the future. This is such a book.
Each reader is likely to connect with the essays in different ways, bring their own insights and experience to topics as varied as homelessness, healthcare, culture, migration, precarious work, disability and environmental justice – to name but a few.

This Equality, Diversity & Inclusion training will help your group widen participation – we’ll explore our awareness of how different forms of racism affect the environmental sector on a daily basis.
While we are navigating our way forward to honest diversity and inclusion, SCCAN and CEMVO have developed a training opportunity to conduct individual and organisational analysis of methods for engaging with diverse communities. We will consider and question our own awareness of racism today and how different forms of racism are affecting the green sector on a daily basis.
There’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution to holistic reforms in our ways of working. The first step to all possible solutions would look at generating honest enthusiasm to being responsive to people with lived experiences of inequalities. More often than not, our attempts at creating equality in the workplace are experienced as tokenistic and superficial.
To combat that exploitative nature of our experiments, we must begin with educating ourselves in racism and then thinking of setting up long-term anti-racism frameworks. So, this training workshop will allow you to explore ideas of racism and what it means to put them in and out of practice.
Booking essential – limited to just 15 participants.
