Citizens Assembly of Scotland
/The Citizens’ Assembly of Scotland involved 100 citizens from across Scotland, who were broadly representative of the country, coming together to listen, discuss and think about what kind of country we want to build in Scotland, as well as other related questions.
During 2019-2020, the Assembly met 4 times in person and 4 times online to deliberate on these questions and make their recommendations. You can read the Assembly’s vision and recommendations here.
