Big Climate Conversation: report of findings - technical annex

Annex which accompanies the main findings report from the Big Climate Conversation providing more information about the design and delivery of the public engagement process and the analysis of participant responses.


Strand 3: Digital Conversation (22 AUGUST)

The final strand of the public engagement programme for The Big Climate Conversation was the digital conversation. Hosting a conversation online was an important way to ensure that individuals who were unable to take part in a workshop or a community event, for whatever reason, were still able to have their voices heard.

The digital conversation took place on the Scottish Government’s Climate Change Twitter page (@ScotGovClimate) between 12:30 – 14:30 on 22nd August. The questions mimicked those used in the facilitated workshops and were posed through a combination of tweet text and images.

Participants were encouraged to engage with the Twitter questions either by replying directly to the post or by tweeting their opinions using the hashtag ‘#BigClimateConversation’. In total, 82 responses were received during this digital conversation.
