Conference bringing together land managers, farmers, MSPs and environmental groups to debate nature restoration and climate change adaptation in Scotland.
Scotland's Nature Summit comes to the Assembly Rooms on Tuesday 2 March, running from 10 am to 5 pm. It's a full-day conference that brings together the people who actually shape the country's natural environment: land managers, farmers, fishers, Scottish Government and public sector staff, MSPs, community groups, campaigners and environmental organisations. The whole day is built around a single question: what does life in Scotland look like with nature restored and thriving, and how do we get there?
That's the broad aim, but the day goes into the specifics. It looks at what climate change means for nature policy and practice, and it asks what can be learned from the people we disagree with. The organisers frame restoring nature as one of the fundamental challenges facing Scotland today, set against strong public support for environmental protection and an accelerating urgency to adapt to climate change. It's not just a talk; it's a debate about how the country handles its land and water as the climate shifts.
Behind the scenes, the summit is organised by Scottish Environment LINK, with support from NatureScot and RSPB Scotland. It's a gathering of the different voices that have a stake in the landscape, from the people working the land to the ones writing the policy.
