This document sets a vision for how the Place Standard tool can build on its successes to date and support place-based working across Scotland.

The strategy aims to ensure that the views, stories and real life experiences of people living in a particular place are captured, valued and integrated into the heart of decision-making processes. Understanding a place, and its influence on individuals and the community is essential for effective place-based working. The Place Standard tool has been highly successful in helping communities and public authorities to generate the discussions required to understand the assets of a place.
