Co-designing the Scottish Approach to Change Learning Community

On 31 March 2026, our team leading the Scottish Approach to Change hosted a session to co-design the Scottish Approach to Change Learning Community.

The Learning Community aims to support change across health and social care by:

  • helping members build knowledge, understanding, and confidence when delivering change
  • creating a safe space to share experiences of change, overcome challenges, and seek help from peers
  • facilitating connections and enabling you to identify and connect with others working on similar issues
  • supporting collaboration across different change disciplines
  • embedding the ethos of the Scottish Approach to Change across health and social care

Watch the recording of our co-design session to hear about:

  • the purpose of the co-design session and how we will work together
  • the Scottish Approach to Change and how the Learning Community will support people to deliver effective change
  • the principles of a learning system
  • our proposal for the Learning Community
