This one day event brought people and organisations together from across Scotland. At the workshop, presentations and group activities enabled participants to share knowledge about current and future e-participation projects and opportunities and establish common. Complementary areas of interest were established through a “speed dating” session e.g. dividing attendees into e-participation skills and e-participation needs.
We began to define the current baseline of e-participation in Scotland: i.e. live and planned initiatives, organisations, opportunities.
The event led to the establishment of the eParticipation Scotland community of practice at http://www.communities.idea.gov.uk
