The health of Scotland's media and redesigning our city centres

On this episode, we talk to Dr Hayes Mabweazara, Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Glasgow, and one of a team of researchers investigating the health of Scotland’s media. Here, he discusses the findings of their recently published report ‘Scotland’s Sustainable Media Future: Challenges and Opportunities’ 

We also speak to Dr Andrew Hoolachan, Lecturer in Planning at the University of Glasgow. Dr Hoolachan reflects on how we might redesign our city centres including Glasgow, if we are to meet net zero climate targets, and what the potential implications might be for the economy and day-to-day life.
