Welcome to EdinburghCompact

WHAT is a Compact?

Webster defines it as ‘an agreement between parties,’ and as ‘a covenant.’ One might say a compact is a contract, or a promise.

The Compact says that public agencies will work with third sector bodies ‘In Equal Respect’ and employing the Compact Principles of transparency, accountability, clear communication, equity and respect.

The Edinburgh Compact Partnership is the primary context within which statutory partners come face to face with a range of voluntary and community sector (sometimes called the ‘third sector’) interests. The Partnership is responsible for taking forward the work of the Compact Strategy and its Action Plan.

One of the first actions the Compact embarked upon was profiling the third sector. Using the search bar at the top of this page, or by clicking the Search Directory button on the left hand side, you can find information on over 600 Edinburgh third sector organisations.
