Scottish Rural Action

About

Scottish Rural Action (SRA) works with members and partners to: - build a grassroots-led rural movement in Scotland that connects rural communities with each other and with decision-makers for the purpose of sharing learning and shaping policy. - provide secretariat for platforms of the rural movement including the Scottish Rural & Islands Parliament (SRIP) and the Scottish Rural & Islands Youth Parliament (SRIYP). - collaborate with seldom-heard groups to ensure these platforms are inclusive and accessible. - build the capacity of sectoral and geographic networks, upskilling organisations and individuals to enable them to participate in the rural movement more effectively. - collectively develop a place based and asset-based understanding of rural Scotland's economy, society and culture that shapes local practice and national policy. - connect Scotland's rural movement with UK, EU and international partners.
