On Sunday the 24th April I met up with a number of thinkers, doers and other individuals to envision a new Patrick Geddes inspired thinking machine for our communal urgencies today. Environmental issues, poverty, migration, war, are all intertwined. No issue can be seen in isolation. Geddesian thinking can help us to discuss the sustainability of everything.

Thanks to Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh for hosting the event.
