Miniature Glasgow

Miniature Glasgow is a short film in which the city is imagined as a village of 100 people.

It is inspired by the Miniature Earth project www.miniature-earth.com

The aim is to present information about the city and its people in a simple and accessible way.

The data used in its production comes from a range of sources. This first version was made in 2009 but the data will change over time.

We hope you enjoy Miniature Glasgow and that it stimulates new thoughts, conversations and understanding about our city.

The Glasgow Centre for Population Health is planning to develop a miniature cities comparison tool with other European cities, applying the same concepts and focussing on health inequalities.

Miniature Glasgow was part of a larger 2009 initiative to address health care challenges for the city through a series of civic conversations.

You can learn more about the initiative at partner sites Glasgow Centre for Population Health and the International Futures Forum. 

The GCPH is a partnership between NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, Glasgow City Council, and the University of Glasgow, funded by the Scottish Government.
