Celebrating young people in Scotland’s land based industries

If you are planning to attend this year’s Royal Highland Show, you could join us for our networking event celebrating the place of young people in Scotland’s land based industries.

The opening address will be delivered by the Minister for Employability and Training, Jamie Hepburn MSP, followed by contributions from Professor Wayne Powell, Principal and Chief Executive, Scotland's Rural College and a personal perspective from Sarah Millar, Farming and Land Use Manager, Soil Association Scotland.

Sorry, this event has already happened. Have a look at our upcoming events.

The Royal Highland Show – The Full Picture

As the SEFARI Knowledge Exchange Sectorial Lead for Soils and Crops, Ken's particularly interested in how plant roots play a critical role in mechanically stabilising soil, so he never thought he’d be enlisting the help of a Pufferfish to communicate research!

Social Network Analysis Workshop - SRUC

SNA is a tool to illusate how different items are connected together. Often shown as nodes describing people and edges how the nodes link together. At its very core social network analysis uses data to help make connections, help people collaborate and help more people benefit from these collaborations.

The target audience for this event are the public, private and third sectors. Organisers of events are particularly welcome as network analysis of their participants can help build relationships.

Provisional date and time listed, still TBC.
