Institutionalising Participatory and Deliberative Democracy Working Group: report
/
This report explores how the Scottish Government's ambition for change can be delivered to make Scotland’s democracy more participative and inclusive, and proposes next steps as it incorporates processes for participatory and deliberative democracy into the democratic system.
The recommendations in this report relate to two themes:
developing a broad range of participation and democratic innovations
using this system as a basis to establish routine use of Citizens' Assemblies in Scotland
The recommendations offer a route to embed participatory and deliberative democracy across different time periods: early foundational actions, the current Parliament, and some longer term ambitions for consideration.
