New Scots refugee integration strategy 2018-2022: first year progress report

Continuing Commitment

In year one, New Scots partners have made significant achievements, which support refugees and asylum seekers living in communities across Scotland. There is recognition of continuing challenges for the strategy. The principles of the New Scots approach have guided the achievements made and continue to set the framework, which will support future achievements and work to overcome these challenges. 

New Scots partners remain committed to supporting refugees, asylum seekers and communities in Scotland by delivering the New Scots refugee integration strategy 2018 – 2022. 

Through the New Scots approach, we will strive to achieve the vision “for a welcoming Scotland where refugees and asylum seekers are able to rebuild their lives from the day they arrive.”
