Sustainable upland estate management in Scotland

The Sustainable Estates for the 21st Century project was generously funded by the Henry Angest Foundation.


Further work on the project has also been supported by the Economic and Social Research Council, Scottish Government and Scottish Land and Estates:

Feedback Workshops

We held three feedback workshops in October and November 2011. These workshops were for people who kindly took part in the research, as well as for anyone else interested in hearing more about the work.

At the workshops, participants had the opportunity to comment on the draft version of the booklet ('Working Together for Sustainable Estate Communities') and offer their feedback.  Each workshop started with some short presentations of the findings.  Then, there was time for networking and commenting on the booklet in a relaxed, informal environment.
