Community-led design research - Shaping better places together

This is a research report on facilitation for community-led design processes and how to best support the process.

Shaping better places together

Organising, leading and reporting on community-led design processes can be challenging and involves a very broad range of contexts and partners.  In 2017, a specialist research team, supported by Scottish Government and made up of members from the University of Dundee, Eclipse Research and Kevin Murray Associates produced a report into the facilitation of participatory placemaking.
