Our Mission

Nexus Link Trust champions transparency as a cornerstone of organisational integrity, striving to set a standard for accountability and openness. Rooted in the values of integrity, inclusivity, and digital freedoms, we serve as both advocate and exemplar, offering a template for organisations to follow suit.

Our primary focus lies within Scotland’s vibrant third sector, yet our aspirations extend far beyond, envisioning a world where transparency transcends borders and sectors. Through accessible platforms such as our GitLab repository and website, we ensure all our documents are publicly available, inviting scrutiny and fostering trust.

Guided by our commitment to education, policy advocacy, and direct engagement, we catalyse systemic change, aligning with legislative frameworks such as the GDPR while pushing the boundaries of transparency further. By contacting and advising organisations on the benefits of public disclosure, we empower them to embrace transparency as a catalyst for positive change.

While our current efforts are directed towards the Scottish third sector, we aspire to extend our influence to organisations beyond geographical boundaries. Our focus remains on fostering transparency and accountability within Scotland’s organisational landscape, with a vision to expand our impact globally through strategic partnerships and collaborations.

Nexus Link Trust stands ready to collaborate with like-minded organisations such as the Organisation for Ethical Source, recognising the power of collective action in advancing our shared vision of transparency and accountability.

Ultimately, we envision a future where organisations welcome public scrutiny, where the voices of all stakeholders are heard, and where transparency becomes not merely a requirement but a fundamental ethos. Together, we strive for a world where the public has a meaningful stake in decisions that impact their lives, transcending traditional barriers and empowering true democratic participation.
