We worked with our colleagues at The Democratic Society and the Scottish Government on the co-creation of a vision for public sector data in Scotland, through a short-life Horizon Scan Group, coming together into a cohort over summer 2024 in a series of workshops. We designed a highly collaborative approach, with a futures scenario methodology, and a temporal approach – looking 20 years into the future – to enable the co-creation of the Vision.

The Vision is now being socialised across the public sector in Scotland.
