Abstract
This report presents the main findings from a research study exploring the public’s attitudes to land reform. The study was conducted on behalf of the Scottish Government by Ipsos MORI Scotland in collaboration with Scotland’s Rural College. Fieldwork took place between Spring and Autumn 2020.
The aim of this research was to investigate the public’s attitudes to land reform and community engagement in decisions about land use and provide a nuanced understanding of what policy options are likely to meet the public’s priorities.
A mixed-method approach was adopted, comprising: an evidence review, eight
interviews with expert stakeholders, a mixed mode (online and telephone) survey of 1,501 respondents aged 16 and over, and a deliberative stage which involved 10 online workshops and 12 interviews.
