It attempts to articulate in an accessible and useable format (and with clear links to East Lothian Council\u2019s Single Outcome Agreement) the actions that will be required to enable both short term changes and longer term structural changes e.g. in planning policy and the local economy, as we move to a low carbon future. The plan also describes the kind of supportive framework that will be needed at the neighbourhood level.<\/p>\n<p>The community engagement programme that took \u00a0place to develop this action plan has given us a baseline against which to measure future progress in building local resilience, including future carbon savings. The broad approach is summarised in this\u00a0<a title=\"Resilience Action Planning\" href=\"http:\/\/ourlocality.org\/dunbar2025\/project-activities\/vision-and-action-plan\/community-reslience-action-planning-project\/\">presentation<\/a>, which was given to key stakeholders.<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><br \/>\nWe developed an innovative and robust community engagement process, which used a variety of participatory tools.
