Scotland's Landscape Alliance: Landscape, Land Use and Economy
The Scottish Landscape Alliance is a grouping of over 65 organisations with a common interest in raising awareness of the importance of Scotland’s landscapes to climate resilience and biodiversity, our economic performance and public health and wellbeing and, in doing this, gain public and political support for the better care of Scotland’s landscape and places to maximise future benefits. Its vision is a Scotland where the benefits of landscape are recognised, and where landscape is designed and cared for to strengthen its role in delivering Scotland’s national outcomes, the UN Sustainable Development Goals[i] and the principles of the European Landscape Convention [ii] This presentation (Landscape, Land Use and Economy) accompanies the launch, on 20th October 2020, of a Position Statement[iii] describing the issues, and making recommendations, regarding Scotland's landscapes with respect to land use and the economy. The Position Statement is accessible at: https://scotlandslandscapealliance.org/position-statement-on-landscape-land-use-and-the-economy-28-09-2020/ References: [i] The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030. https://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/sustainable-development-goals.html. [ii] The European Landscape Convention (ELC) is the first international treaty dedicated to the protection, management and planning of all landscapes in Europe. Signed by the UK government in 2006 and introduced in March 2007, the ELC provides a people-centred way to reconcile management of the environment with the social and economic challenges of the future, and aims to help people reconnect with place. The ELC covers land and water (inland and seas), and natural, rural, urban and peri-urban landscapes. It includes every-day or degraded landscapes as well as those that might be considered outstanding. https://www.landscapeinstitute.org/policy/13732-2/.
