First Rural Scotland in Focus Round Table Debate on 'Differentiating Rural' (June 2010)

This Round Table Debate focused on "Should 'rural' be differentiated within Scotland's development?"

The was the first in the series of Rural Scotland in Focus Round Table Debates and was held on June 17th 2010. The Round Table brought together an invited group of practitioners, policy-makers, academics and implementers from Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales. The Debate focused around three key issues:

1. To identify the extent to which 'rural' needs differentiating

2. If so, to identify the 'what, when, how and why' of that differentiation

3. To generate a coherent set of conclusions, useful to a wide range of audiences, which are amenable to ready utilisation.

The Programme, List of Participants, a Note of the Debate and the presentations are all available below.
