Abstract
Scotland has enthusiastically joined the global participatory budgeting (PB) movement in recent years and this chapter offers our take on the story so far. We are team of co-authors drawn from the PB Working Group and the PB Scotland Network, which brings together government officials, civil society practitioners and academic researchers to inform and support the development of PB. This chapter taps into evidence developed across these sectors. We use data from government reports, as well as evidence generated by NGOs and academic institutions The chapter combines our different perspectives to provide an overview of key milestones and developments.
