Location:

As a local government authority, Stirling Council's primary focus is on serving the communities within its geographical area in Scotland. While it may engage in international partnerships, such as town twinning (e.g., Villeneuve d'Ascq in France, Dunedin in Florida, USA, Óbuda in Hungary, Summerside in Canada, and Kecioren in Turkey) or participate in European/international local government networks for knowledge sharing and best practice, its operational presence is not 'global' in a corporate sense. Its efforts are concentrated on local service delivery, economic development, and community well-being within Stirling.
