Infographics, blogposts and best practice examples have been created to develop an understanding of incorporating the UNCRC into Scots law.

The resources include a timeline of human rights protections in Scotland and the UK, as well as information on the pros and cons of different models of incorporation.

They have been produced as part of research project lead by the University of Edinburgh Law School in collaboration with the Human Rights Consortium Scotland, Amnesty International and Together.
