‍ Join SCDC and Scotland’s Open Government Team at this event to explore Scotland’s approach to its fourth Open Government Action Plan.

Open government is a global movement centred around people coming together to explore how the relationship between communities and government can be more open, participatory, inclusive, and accountable.

SCDC has supported this latest co-creation process, working with partners to hear community perspectives around trust in government, as well as learning from third sector and public sector colleagues around the themes of the next Open Government Action Plan.

Held during Open Government Week, this online event will take place on Thursday 21st May and will be a chance to learn about the design and delivery of the co-creation process, as colleagues reflect on engaging with equalities and lived experience organisations, and wider civil society.

We will also hear from Scotland’s Civil Society Chair and the Scottish Government’s Open Government team about their vision for Action Plan 2026 - 2030.

Also taking place during the week, this online event on Weds 20th May will explore the lessons learned from the latest five years of participation in Scotland.
