Welfare Experiences Project

The Welfare Experiences project is a ground-breaking international study comparing how people experience benefits in Estonia, Hungary, Norway, Spain, and the UK. It looks at how policies shape those experiences and, more importantly, what needs to change.

Inclusion Scotland is proud to be a co-production partner, bringing disabled people’s lived experience in Scotland into the spotlight. In 2024, we ran focus groups with our members about claiming Universal Credit. This report shares what they told us. These are real stories that we aim to use to push for a fairer, more respectful benefits system.
