About

Join this Sustainable Land Use module at Perth College UHI to explore these debates from the perspective of policy, practice, and theory, learning how we can own, use, and manage land in ways which provide for sustainable economic, social, and environmental objectives, while prioritising and integrating the voices of local people.

Overview

The way we use land (and who makes those decisions) has profound implications for where we can live, what employment is available, how we eat, how we spend our leisure time and what animals and plants we come into contact with. Land is a finite resource which is gradually reducing in quality and quantity, both in Scotland and around the world.

In this context, it is becoming increasingly important to consider how we integrate certain land uses, what the implications of this may be, and to what extent this can be considered a sustainable approach to utilising this finite resource.
