Just Transition Participatory Budgeting Fund
27 June 2023 • Sarah Medcraf
The Just Transition Participatory Budgeting Fund from the Scottish Government is back for a second year!
The Just Transition PB Fund aims to empower the residents of Aberdeenshire, Aberdeen and Moray by giving you a crucial role in shaping our just transition to a net zero future in the North East of Scotland.
£1.5million is available (£500,000 for each region) to support local grassroots green projects from third sector organisations and community groups in the North East and Moray.
The Fund is an opportunity for communities to put forward projects that match local needs and priorities and will enable us to create a greener region with residents invited to have the final say over which initiatives are funded through a public vote.
ACVO TSI, Aberdeenshire Voluntary Action, TSI Moray, NESCAN Hub, Money for Moray and Scottish Community Development Centre (SCDC) are working in partnership to deliver the fund and will be actively engaging with everyone in the region to contribute ideas and be an active part in determining the discussion over community priorities in in relation to our just transition to net zero.
Join us on this transformative journey, and together, let's shape the path to a greener North East of Scotland.
