The question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will convene a roundtable with philanthropists, charitable foundations and representatives of the wider third sector to consider how Scotland can encourage greater philanthropic giving and develop opportunities for government and philanthropy to work together on shared priorities.
The answer
The Scottish Government understands how important it is to embed collaboration is to the delivery of our shared priorities. In the Programme for Government, we announced the development of a Scottish Prevention Investment Framework, which aims to provide a consistent approach to identifying, assessing and prioritising investment in prevention and early intervention, helping direct resources towards actions that improve outcomes for people and reduce future demand on public services. Collaboration with external parties, including with philanthropists and the third sector, will be part of the development of this Framework.
