Pathfinder Programme - Community Wealth Building
In partnership with Scottish Government, Scotland Excel has developed a Community Wealth Building Toolkit. This aims to deliver local capability and impact on inclusive and green economic growth through a Community Wealth Building (CWB) lens.
Focussing on the ‘Progressive Procurement’ pillar of Community Wealth Building,
the Toolkit sets out a project comprising several streams of activity.
Advocating the Scottish Model of Procurement and focussing on the power of
public spending, the toolkit supports the delivery of strategic objectives and
sustainable economic growth.
