Resources

This toolkit is designed to support Scottish policy making to be more joined up and coherent, across policy areas both within Scotland and internationally. The problems Scottish policy making aims to tackle are increasingly complex and exist across geographic and thematic boundaries. Our policy response needs to recognise and reflect this.

This tool is aimed at all those developing and implementing policy in the Scottish Government and its associated public bodies. It is designed to support holistic policy making that reflects the complex reality of our interconnected world.

The resource has two main parts. The first half features a general overview of the National Performance Framework (NPF) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and how the two are interlinked. The second half uses a Global Citizenship Education approach to provide practical, interactive, activities to explore how to apply the NPF and SDGs in the policy making process in an inclusive and reflective way.
