      Rural Community Empowerment in the 21st Century

      25 March 2010, Perth

      The purpose of the seminar was to draw together leading social scientists to give a fresh perspective on what makes some communities more dynamic than others, and how rural communities can be supported to identify and develop their assets. The seminar was designed to stimulate discussion of how social science can inform policy, and provide a genuine opportunity for ESRC scholars and those directly involved in preserving and growing rural communities, to have an input to policy development.

      This seminar was organised in collaboration with the Scottish Government.
