• Earth, Wood and Fire, Ceramic Review Article by Giles Sutherland, 2014

No obvious connection with ceramics (except that everything is connected and perhaps the vagaries of being a woodfire potter may help foster a certain degree of resilience). Two academic papers on community resilience that resulted from my involvement with the EU funded TESS project researching community-led climate action in six countries across Europe:

• Operationalising a Framework for Understanding  Community Resilience in Europe, published in Journal of Regional Environmental Change, 2018
• Community Resilience and Narratives of Community Empowerment in Scotland, published in Community Development Journal, 2018

And a report on research exploring the developing roles of key community sector organisations known as Community Anchors.  Co-written for What Works Scotland, 2018:

• Transforming communities? Exploring the roles of community anchor organisations in public service reform, local democracy, community resilience and social change

And a summary report of key findings, common ideas and themes that emerged from cross-sectoral interviews during the first phase of the Scottish Communities Climate Action Network’s ‘Climate Action Pioneer’s’ project between May and September 2019

• Climate Action Pioneers, weaving a new story, Nov. 2019
