Scotland is a multicultural society of just over 5 million. People have been coming to live here from all over the world for centuries, so you can be sure of a warm welcome. And of course, Scottish people are famously friendly.

 

People come here to study, live and work from China, Japan, India, Pakistan, Europe, North America, Africa, Australia… all over the world. Some come to avoid persecution, others to find a better quality of life and to enjoy excellent education and career opportunities. In 2001, it was reported that 2% of Scotland’s population was from a non-white, minority ethnic group.

 

Now Scotland is actively seeking a flow of Fresh Talent to flourish alongside native-born Scots and secure its place as an essential part of the global economy. Scots have always had an international outlook. Now in the 21st century, Scotland wants to attract New Scots who will make this their home.
