From climate change to human rights, there are a range of pressing issues and challenges that affect your community and that your community organisation may well want to influence.

At Communities Channel Scotland, we’ve been trying to get a grasp of some of the big topics confronting Scotland and the wider world. So far, these are:

• Covid-19

• Climate change

• Inequality

• Human rights

• Cost of living

• Equality

For each of these, we have tried to point groups in the direction of the most useful guides and support out there. We know many community groups will be better informed about these issues than we are, but hopefully the information and links will still be useful, particularly to those who aren’t so knowledgeable about a particular area.
