There are increasing opportunities for communities in Scotland to take control of and instigate the development of community assets and services. Good quality, and broad community engagement is an imperative part of the process in community-led projects. This poses challenges for dispersed communities to garner wider engagement, participation and consensus. There are challenges around age and cultural gaps in the local population demographic, and where communities of interest are even more spatially dispersed than geographically defined communities distance is a barrier to inclusive engagement. Important community members’ voices are often not heard and therefore their needs are not met, and the development of assets and services suffer as well as causing social rifts. This project worked with Highlands and Islands Enterprise, local community development trusts, and remote and dispersed communities in a series of research and co-design workshops to develop engagement tools to help communities conduct quality peer-to-peer engagement that spans a broad demographic.
