Black communities have often been left out of the climate and environmental policies and conversations.

To become resilient, and prepare for a sustainable, renewable future, Black people must be informed.

Globally, all economies are relying more on technology. Black and Scot as a digital/technology focused non-profit will promote ‘The Climate Gap’ initiative to explore and communicate the resources, data, technology, communications and opportunities that responds, address and support black communities.

This event will connect black people, MSPs, Environment Leaders and Local/Federal Government to discuss climate change, the impacts and the career or business opportunities for black people that is deemed inclusive and equitable.

Cybersecurity is a rapidly growing field with increasing demand for skilled professionals.

However, it is also an industry that has been historically lacking in diversity.

·        e-network with other like-minded individuals

Whether you are a recent graduate, looking to switch careers, or simply interested in exploring the world of cybersecurity, this workshop is the perfect opportunity for you to take the first step.

Join us and discover the vast opportunities available in cybersecurity while making connections with industry professionals and other individuals in the field.
