A new website has recently been launched, dedicated to highlighting the tangible outcomes of the New Scots strategy, which aims to empower refugees, asylum seekers, and our communities in fostering inclusive and robust societies that promote active citizenship.

The NewScots Refugee Integration Delivery Project, spearheaded by theScottish Government in collaboration with Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA), the Scottish Refugee Council, and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) Chair for Refugee Integration through the Languages and the Arts (UNESCO RILA) at the University of Glasgow, oversees the implementation of this strategy. The project's objective is to facilitate effective integration and promote the overall well-being of individuals seeking refuge in Scotland.
