People in Dundee are being asked how they think Scotland can be made a fairer country.
To capitalise on the high levels of political engagement created by the independence referendum and the General Election, the Scottish Government is visiting communities across Scotland to listen to what most concerns the people who live in them.
The “national discussion” will take place over the summer and autumn.
Social justice secretary Alex Neil will host the Dundee event, which will take place on Thursday, November 5.
He said: “Tackling inequality, along with building a prosperous and competitive economy, is at the heart of the Scottish Government’s commitment to creating a better country for all. The two go hand in hand.
“The Scottish Government’s vision is for a Scotland where people are healthier, happier and treated with respect, and where opportunities, wealth and power are spread more equally. We want to discuss issues like childcare, fair work and health and hear what people believe could be done to create a better Scotland.
“It is important that we are an open and accessible government. We want to tap into conversations many people and communities are already having throughout Scotland, rather than consult on whether or not people agree with a range of ready-made proposals.
“We recognise that it will take time to achieve our shared vision of a fair, equal and socially just Scotland. We are not looking for quick fixes or temporary measures but long lasting change that can benefit the whole nation.”
Eventswill take place across the country and online, including a series of events over the summer and autumn where people can discuss the issues that mean most to them.
An action plan, with people and their priorities at its heart, will be published in the new year with milestones to the next Parliament and beyond to help us achieve our goals.
