Glasgow is one of six European cities participating in an initiative – Future City Jobs – that aims to tackle youth unemployment using the creative and cultural industries.

The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland hosted a workshop event on 23 and 24 November which explored ideas for employment, training and placement in these industries for a wide variety of young people. The event programme included a ‘Dragon’s Den’-style event where a panel listened to presentations before identifying the best proposals.
