Disability-inclusive climate emergency planning in Scotland

Publication Date
May 2026
Type

Topic
  • Climate change
Synopsis

ERCS have been working closely with Inclusion Scotland and the Sensing Climate project to identify opportunities for disability-inclusive climate emergency planning in Scotland.

Through both a policy analysis and a workshop with disabled people in Scotland, we have developed a report that reflects on the extent to which Scotland’s emergency planning policies are disability-inclusive and identifies recommendations for disability-inclusive climate emergency planning. By disability-inclusive, we refer to policies that are co-designed by disabled people, informed by their priorities and include tangible actions to reduce the risks for them.

Other versions of the report are available:

Full report – Large print Word document

Easy Read – Summary of the research findings

Easy Read – Summary of the lived experience workshop findings
