Abstract
This report reflects on an Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funded knowledge exchange project Supporting Local Acceleration in Granton through Inclusive, Data-Driven and Participatory Engagement. The work involved local community and cultural organisations, the Granton Waterfront Development team at the City of Edinburgh Council (CoEC) and a team of researchers from the Data Civics programme at the University of Edinburgh’s Edinburgh Futures Institute (EFI) and was organised around two inter-related initiatives: • a Knowledge Exchange Lab for dialogue with the local community and community sector • a Civic Observatory that looks to use digital innovations to share data and learning to monitor and build cross-sector cooperation and participatory governance
