State Of The Nation Report

State Of the Nation Report 2026

The Scottish Violence Reduction Unit (SVRU) is marking its two decades of work with the launch of a landmark State of the Nation report, unveiled today at an event titled Unfinished Business: The Next Twenty which was held on 25 February at Glasgow’s City Chambers.

The report reflects a deeper look at the last 20 years, while highlighting how the challenges facing children and young people have evolved, but that the need for collective action to build safer, more connected communities has never been greater.
