The Truacanta Project was set up to support local communities in Scotland who were interested in taking community action to improve people’s experiences of death, dying, loss and care, using a community development approach. It ran from 2019-2023.
The Truacanta Project has been evaluated by Janet Biggar Research, using a combination of depth interviews with participants, observation, reflective workshops and self-evaluation.
Drawing on this and additional evaluation published in an Interim Report the final evaluation report sets out key findings and reflections from the Truacanta Project as a whole.
