- Overview
Join us for a session on how voluntary organisations can effectively engage with MSPs, with Kezia Dugdale.
- Description
With over 60 newly elected MSPs to the Scottish Parliament this parliamentary term, there is a significant opportunity for voluntary organisations to build new relationships and help shape policy discussions and decisions.
We’re delighted to be joined by Kezia Dugdale, Associate Director of the University of Glasgow’s Centre for Public Policy, former MSP and leader Scottish Labour to share insights into how voluntary organisations can effectively engage and build relationships with politicians.
Whether you're looking to establish new connections or influence policy discussions, this event will provide practical advice and insider insights to help you engage confidently with MSPs.
The session will include a Q&A, which will be followed by networking.
Speakers:
Kezia Dugdale, Associate Director, Centre for Public Policy
