Solving the Land Use Jigsaw

SEDA Land Event at Go Falkland. Time TBC.

This SEDA Land event on integrated land use could help shape the Scottish Government's delivery plan for  its Third Land Use Strategy 2021-2026.

Join our expert panel representing different sectors and regions. As always we will be led by the science  with two scientists talking about a new tool for assessing land uses in terms of a matrix of measurements and an approach to landscape planning that integrates social and ecological elements.
