Event Details

The first ever EMEN Environment Conference is coming to Glasgow!

The event takes place on Thursday 12th October 2023, at Trades Hall. The event will run from 10am to 5pm.

This is the first time we have hosted an autumn conference and will be delighted if you were able to attend. Our key themes for 2023 are energy (with a focus on heating buildings), transport (with a focus on cycling), and how we can mobilise community climate action. We view all of these themes through the lens of a Just Transition, and how we can create a fairer, greener and more prosperous Scotland for all.

Join us to hear from expert speakers, grassroots activists, academics, and politicians – and have your voice heard, as we seek to build a fairer, cleaner, greener Scotland.

EMEN – the Ethnic Minority Environmental Network – is facilitated by CEMVO Scotland, and funded by the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust.
