Two European Interreg funding programmes are currently calling for application proposals.
Public and private organisations can submit applications to the Interreg North-West Europe (NWE) Programme on Innovation, Low Carbon and Resource and Materials Efficiency until 30 November.
The Programme encourages public, scientific, private and civil society organisations to cooperate with a view to improving the economic, environmental, territorial and social development of Europe's regions.
A new website will act as a central location for information, news and resources about Participatory Budgeting in Scotland.
Participatory budgeting (PB) is recognised as a way for local people to have a direct say in how, and where, public funds can be used to address local requirements.
Different PB models exist, although it normally involves members of the community deciding through a voting process how to spend part of the budget of a public agency such as a local authority.
