Professor Duncan MacLennan and Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Covid Recovery, John Swinney MSP, discuss building forward better post pandemic

Professor Maclennan launches a new report "A Scotland of Better Places" commissioned by the David Hume Institute as part of The Action Project.  Professor Maclennan will discuss the findings with Mr Swinney and the central role Scotland's Places will play in Covid recovery.

The David Hume Institute’s Action Project investigates actions for Scotland to ‘move faster towards a country that is more prosperous, sustainable, inclusive and fair’. The project engaged more than 4,500 people from across Scotland, bringing together a broad range of perspectives. 

Covid shone a light on the places in which we live, work, study, play and grow. They are inter-connected, inter-dependent and impact on every aspect of our lives.

Join us for this online event to launch the report, David Hume Institute Director Susan Murray will be joined in conversation with Professor Maclennan and Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Covid Recovery John Swinney MSP.
