🌍 New Blog Alert: Rights at the Heart of Scotland’s Budget? Part 2 🌍 Our latest blog dives into the details of Scotland’s 2025-26 budget, comparing it with the previous year’s allocations through a human rights lens. We explore whether progress has been made—or if rising inflation, cost-of-living pressures, and systemic inequalities are holding Scotland back from fulfilling its commitments under international human rights law. Key questions we address: 👉 Are investments in health, housing, and social security keeping pace with growing needs? 👉 How are rural and remote communities, women, ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities impacted? 👉 Does this budget meet Scotland’s obligations to protect, respect, and fulfill rights? This is the second in our Rights at the Heart of Scotland’s Budget? series, which examines whether Scotland’s fiscal decisions deliver for its people. 💬 Join the conversation, and let us know your thoughts! #HumanRights #BudgetAnalysis #Scotland #Equality #SocialJustice #YourBudgetYourRights Scottish Human Rights Commission
