The Scottish Parliament's think-tank
As the Scottish Parliament's think-tank, Scotland's Futures Forum looks beyond the electoral cycle to stimulate debate on the long-term challenges and opportunities that Scotland faces.
Our major programme for the fifth session of the Scottish Parliament has been the Scotland 2030 Programme, an exploration of Scotland's culture and society and our aspirations for 2030 and beyond.
Our report aims to capture the key issues that emerged from our work and some important questions for the next 10 years. It also outlines a selection of the creative suggestions that have been shared during our events, with 10 ideas for 2030. Most of all, we hope that it encourages everyone - Members of the Scottish Parliament and the people they serve - to take a positive view of our shared future.
