Much has happened since that date which highlights the continuing need to ensure our collective focus on the importance of landscape and place in delivering its many future benefits that are essential to Scotland’s National Outcomes and a Green Recovery.

Our Call for Action – Landscape and Place for Success highlights our Vison, recommendations for change and 10 outcomes including the ongoing  actions of the SLA and what we would like stakeholders to do to support these outcomes.

The Working Groups established at the SLA launch have developed 3 detailed Position Statements that inform our three recommendations to:-

• Increase Scotland’s resilience to climate change and associated environmental challenges
• Improve the health and wellbeing of people in Scotland and reduce health inequalities
• Support integrated land uses and deliver inclusive growth in Scotland’s economy

Please read them all here.

We will be officially launching the documents at an online event on 20^th October 2020 to coincide with the 20^th anniversary of the European Landscape Convention and International Landscape Day. The aim is to discuss the Position Statements and begin to identify solutions for action. Please put a placeholder in your diary for 20^th October and we will issue a separate invitation shortly.
