Welcome

The Scottish Community Development Network (SCDN) is a member-led organisation, for community workers and community development workers, paid or unpaid, full or part time, from the community, voluntary or public sectors, who support the principles and practice of community development. SCDN is open to anyone with an interest in community development in Scotland.

SCDN National Conference and AGM 2024

 Time for Change: a more radical approach to community development in Scotland. Now is the time to reclaim local democracy. How can community development influence democracy in Scotland's neighbourhoods? 

Big thanks to everyone who joined us for our conference and AGM on 25th October 2024. Everyone participated so well in our creative workshops producing individual and collective zines on the theme of democracy.

Thanks also to our speakers Craig Dalzell, from Common Weal, for his inspiring key note speech and Billie Dunleviewood, Fife member, for all of her support and hard work with the zines.
